Cost of Living: Motion
Seanad Éireann — 2022-06-15
============================================================

Jerry Buttimer (FG), Labour Panel

I thank the Minister for her presence. This is an important motion. At its core it is about people. Every one of us in the House understands the pain and frustration of people. The last thing we need is to come in here to engage in political gamesmanship and make accusations about this side of the House. Senator Gavan can look at me and put his video on the Sinn Féin TikTok machine all he wants. I understand. I live in the real world. In the real world people want action and they are getting action.
