I thank the Taoiseach. Two things are very clear to me. The first is that he is after giving me a lot of waffle. The second is that he is not in touch with reality and what is happening in County Kerry and Killarney. Some 36% of our bed nights are still being taken up by refugees and asylum seekers. That is a fact. Many more of our restaurants, cafes and so forth have closed. There is a problem in that regard. We must be honest with the people paying our taxes. They are paying 44% tax and 52% tax and 4.5% USC charg…

The Government has lost control completely.

Those in government will have to come down to County Kerry to see it. I am very sure that the Government's candidates for the local elections are getting it in the neck in County Kerry because-----

-----I am being told about it and people know who is responsible for it. The Government is letting them down.

The Taoiseach will be very welcome.

What did the Government do with their cats and dogs? I ask the Taoiseach to answer this.

It is not nearly enough.

With proper visas.

I am glad to get the opportunity to talk on this very important topic. It is one that everyone is talking about where I come from. The people I represent are very worried about opting in to this new migration pact. They are asking why Denmark is not opting in. We are an island nation and we do not have much natural resources. Working people, including farmers and businesspeople, are paying 40%, 50% or 52% tax and 4.5% USC on top of that. Before the Government, in its dying days, drives this pact through, it should …

In the same vein, this is very serious. I have come across couples and families totally broke up by this system where they can bet morning, noon and night online. As has been said, going to the races for a day is a different thing where people have a meal or two in the course of a day. They set out to spend a few bob, they have so much in their pockets and they can cut their cloth according to their measure. They know what they are doing, but at certain times when they are betting online, they lose and they invaria…

Kilgarvan.

We beat the best of north Kerry, both times.

You still remember it though, and I will not let you forget it.

I raised this with the Minister last Wednesday evening. I cannot understand how fundraising as we know it has become part of the Bill. I know about the fundraising that goes on in clubs. Most of the work done in local GAA and soccer clubs is done by volunteers who give of their time free of charge. There are things that have to be paid for, such as insurance, travel to games, taking care of youngsters and hiring buses and things like that. Those things cost money, and that is what fundraising is for. One weekly lot…

Where are the Fianna Fáil Deputies the Minister of State is talking about now? They are not even here in the Chamber.

The Minister of State should give over his codding-----

-----and pointing the finger.

The Minister of State is making a hames of this.

He is making an absolute hames of it. The Minister of State wants us to vote for a pig in a poke.

Give over the codding and the politics.
