Finance Bill 2024: Committee and Remaining Stages
Dail Éireann — 2024-11-05
============================================================

Danny Healy-Rae (IND), Kerry

I am being heckled here from behind.
However, there is plenty of money for those who curtail their farm work of food production. These are the ridiculous things that are going on. Yet, at the same time, the parties are all the one now. It was a different situation in the past. They have sold their souls and buried them in the ground when they joined Fine Gael first of all, and when both parties joined the Greens they buried their souls deeper. They have forgotten any aspirations they had. Get a different name for the Fine Gael, Fianna Fáil and Green Government that has been in power for the past four years. Get rid of that name. They are obliterating the name of what they stood for before. They do not stand for anything now only to ensure they get the positions of Government, whether it is Taoiseach, Tánaiste or Ministers, to divide up the spoils between whoever they are and their policies-----
