They have Taoiseach's Questions.
On prevailing side: this member voted with the winning side in 34 of 819 decisive votes (8 abstentions excluded). Read it as a government-or-opposition indicator rather than a measure of influence — the figure is near 100% for members supporting the government of the day and near 0% for those opposing it.
This is the point of the site: contributions keep the party held on the day, not the one held now.

They have Taoiseach's Questions.
They are subverting this Chamber.
Does your word mean anything?
We are losing time at the Order of Business and Taoiseach's Questions.
It is stroke politics.
Is the Taoiseach familiar with democracy?
Donald Trump is setting fire to the international rules based order. He is putting two fingers up to any notion of international law, morality and human decency. The most egregious example of this is that he has given a green light to Israel to restart and accelerate its campaign of genocide against the people of Gaza, directly emboldened by Trump's plan for the ethnic cleansing of Gaza. The idea that being servile or diplomatic in front of someone who is out to set the world's international order and international…
I thank Deputy Wall and the Labour Party for bringing forward this important motion. I also commend Family Carers Ireland and all the young carers who have brought this issue to our attention. We fully support the motion. I know the Government is not opposing it but I hope it will do more than just not oppose it and that it will take seriously this motion, which I assume was drawn up in consultation with Family Carers Ireland and the young carers themselves. I apologise for not being at the briefing today. I was ou…
The Central Bank in its latest quarterly report issued another damning indictment of the catastrophic failure of Government housing policy. One aspect of it that relates to this subcommittee is the fact that deficits in water infrastructure are now a major impediment to delivering the volume of housing necessary to address the housing crisis. I wonder if there is any joined-up thinking going on in terms of the enormous volume of water usage by data centres and the proliferation of such centres. We already know they…
Gas is worse than coal.
No, it is not.
The Taoiseach goes first.
The death toll in Gaza in the past two days is estimated to be 1,000. Hundreds have been slaughtered in their beds by Israel. Will the Taoiseach admit and condemn the fact that the horrific slaughter of 50,000 or so people over the past 15 months could not have been done without the weapons provided by the United States under Biden previously and now Trump, whose ethnic cleansing plan for Gaza has egged on and clearly emboldened the Israeli regime to start to commit further atrocities, and the weapons provided by E…
It is because of the complicity of European and western countries with the slaughter in Gaza.
Russia is a brutal imperialist power. Is that what the Taoiseach is looking for?
And sell weapons to Israel.
To sell weapons to Israel.
All my active political life, I have been campaigning against antisemitism and racism and campaigning to remind people of the horrors of the Holocaust. When David Irving, the Nazi apologist, came to meetings in this country to deny that the Holocaust ever happened, I was the organiser of the protests against it. I arranged for Jewish Auschwitz survivors to tour this country, to speak on national television and to speak about the horrors of the Nazi Holocaust against the Jewish people. It is precisely because we mus…
That is not true. You are misleading people.
Many do not feel comfortable with that definition. Why does the Taoiseach not deal with that?
