Mar Theachta atá tar éis Billí a chur faoi bhráid na Dála cúpla uair chun an neodracht a shá i mBunreacht an Stáit, tacaím leis an rún seo. Seasaim i gcoinne iarrachtaí an Rialtais, agus iarrachtaí an Tánaiste, an Teachta Micheál Martin, ach go háirithe, creimeadh a dhéanamh ar sheasamh onórach an Stáit Éire a bheith neodrach. Nuair a theip ar an Rialtas sna reifrinn ar na conarthaí Nice agus Liospóin, tháinig sé ar sheift an ghlais thriaraigh agus gheall sé go réiteodh an fhoclaíocht a bhí ann chuile fhadhb agus n…
