Taoiseach a Ainmniú - Nomination of Taoiseach
Dail Éireann — 2024-12-18
============================================================

Richard Boyd Barrett (PBP), Dún Laoghaire

People Before Profit will be supporting the nomination of Deputy Mary Lou McDonald, not because we agree with Sinn Féin - we disagree with it on many things, not least its refusal to rule out coalition with Fianna Fáil and Fine Gael - but because we believe parties on the left have an obligation to end 100 years of Fianna Fáil and Fine Gael and put together the first left-wing government this State has ever seen.
