Confidence in Government: Motion
Dail Éireann — 2026-04-14
============================================================

Matt Carthy (SF), Cavan-Monaghan

For all the Government's arrogance and backslapping, the truth that Ministers have not divulged is that their TDs are under more pressure today than they have been in a political lifetime. This pressure is not coming from Sinn Féin or any other party but it is coming from their constituents. Yes, Sinn Féin tabled the no confidence motion but we are just the messengers.
