Confidence in Minister for Foreign Affairs and Defence: Motion
Dail Éireann — 2021-09-15
============================================================

Cathal Crowe (FF), Clare

This Government has worked very well so far and it will work well tomorrow and in the days that follow but, let us be clear, there are three very separate parties in this coalition Government. There are very clear lines of demarcation between us. The Tánaiste, in my opinion, should have dealt with this quickly without a perpetuation of the matter for the length of time it has run its course. Sinn Féin has turned this into raw political opportunism.
