Cost of Living: Motion

Victor Boyhan (IND), Agricultural Panel

Yes. Without interruption, may I repeat that healthcare is in crisis. Childcare is in crisis. Housing is in crisis and the Government simply cannot deliver. Education is in crisis. People cannot live on their social welfare payments, so payments need to be increased. I suggest that the tax cuts are an example of Fine Gael recalibrating its message in order to be politically attractive to its narrow electorate.
