You are.

Yes, if he will.

No.

No, you are spoofing.

We are now four months on from the general election and we have only ten more sitting days until the Easter recess. The legislative priority of the Government so far was to get more money for junior Ministers. We have no committees established. The Government has sat on that matter. It has proven itself to be truly a do-nothing Government. The Dáil is effectively in cold storage. The Government priority is to placate Michael Lowry and his underlings with the pretence and fiction that they can carry out Opposition f…

I ask that the Government desists from this course of action, respects the role we have, as the Opposition, allows us to get on with our work and, dare I suggest it, you get on with yours.

I am happy to clarify that in fact I called the Deputies underlings and not lackies, just for the record.

I called them underlings not lackies.

For the avoidance of doubt, they are in fact underlings and not lackies. I am happy to clarify that.

Israel has resumed its genocidal war on the people of Gaza. Some 970 deaths over the past 48 hours have been reported by health authorities, the majority children, women and the elderly. Those who have died have died hungry. The attack follows Israel's total blockade of humanitarian aid to Gaza, and doctors watch people die before their eyes. This is the horrific result of the impunity handed to Israel. Netanyahu has shattered the ceasefire because he knew he could without consequence. These airstrikes have been la…

I am not the Taoiseach.

I do.

Correct.

Jesus, that is pathetic.

The Taoiseach did not do that.

You sang dumb, Taoiseach.

Tugann Lá Idirnáisiúnta na mBan deis dúinn go léir machnamh a dhéanamh ar an am atá caite agus tabhairt faoin todhchaí go cróga. Déanann muid ceiliúradh ar na glúnta máithreacha, iníonacha agus deirfiúracha ar diúltaíodh fios a bheith acu agus a tháinig timpeall ar dhúshlán doshéanta le misneach an t-athrú a chur i gcrích. Tá dul chun cinn suntasach bainte amach ag mná ag obair le chéile, ach tá rás fada fós le rith. We speak up for women who face incredible challenges and injustice but move mountains to keep the s…

Over the course of the next week the Taoiseach will engage in three crucially important meetings for Ireland's future. The first is a meeting with the British Prime Minister in which I hope the Taoiseach will press for a reset of relationships as equal partners. Then there is an EU Council meeting at a time when the European Commission has kickstarted an EU arms race, proposing a colossal €800 billion in military spending. Then the Taoiseach travels to the United States to meet the US President in the White House a…

Gan dabht, tá na gaolta sin uilig an-tábhachtach ar fad. That is why I have raised the question with the Taoiseach. I am not in the least bit complacent. I am deeply concerned about the international order at this time and Ireland's place within it. Peace is not achieved by investing in and financing war. Every rule in the book is being set aside to enable Europe to invest €800 billion in weapons of war. That is patently not a peace strategy. This country is a neutral country and militarily unaligned, and that plac…

What about Palestine and Gaza?
