I have always respected you. Please extend to the Chair the respect of resuming your seat. We do not need any help from that side.
On prevailing side: this member voted with the winning side in 312 of 313 decisive votes (0 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.

I have always respected you. Please extend to the Chair the respect of resuming your seat. We do not need any help from that side.
Let us forget about all that. Resume your seat, Sir.
It is after 11.30 p.m. It is not a great or wise time to be making decisions. Please do not make me suspend the House.
Please do not make a farce of our Dáil. Resume your seat.
Please, do not make a farce of our Dáil. Resume your seat. We are involved in a process whether we like it or not. The process, which is a democratic process whether we like it or not, must proceed. Resume your seat.
You are completely out of order and I will suspend the House if you insist on continuing to disrupt.
I appeal to you again, please, resume your seat.
This is histrionics now at this stage.
Please resume your seat. It is pure histrionics. You have made your substantive point. The public has heard the point you have had to make.
Please, resume your seat. Please, do not continue.
If this goes on any longer I will suspend. Please, resume your seat.
The House is suspended for five minutes.
I must now deal with a postponed division relating to the motion regarding the future of school education. On Tuesday, 28 July 2020, on the question that the amendment to the motion be agreed to, a division was claimed and in accordance with Standing Order 80(2), that division must be taken now.
Can I take it then that the motion, as amended, is agreed to?
The Deputy did not say it was agreed but he did not say "Votáil".
I am not deaf. I did not hear "Votáil". If the Deputy is going to call "Votáil", he should at least put on his microphone in order that we might hear him. Gabh mo leithscéal.
Please.
The Deputies' opposition is recorded. The Deputies are against the adoption of the motion, as amended. That opposition is registered and recorded.
Is the proposal agreed to?
Does the Deputy have a proposal?
