- Ceisteanna Eile - Other Questions: Defence Forces (16 May 2024)
Gino Kenny: I do not trivialise the situations the Irish Defence Forces have encountered but there is a distinct narrative by the Government that Irish neutrality is up for grabs. The Tánaiste can shake his head all he wants but the rhetoric coming from the Government and EU leaders is that we are almost in a pre-war situation in Europe. We in the Opposition have been very concerned about this...
- Ceisteanna Eile - Other Questions: Defence Forces (16 May 2024)
Gino Kenny: I agree with the Tánaiste that the UN Security Council is dysfunctional. Look at the role of the United States with regard to Israel and its conduct over the past seven months, whereby 35,000 people have been killed including 15,000 children. Think about this. It is absolutely dysfunctional. The United States has played a completely detrimental role in international relations. It...

- Delivering Universal Healthcare: Statements (15 May 2024)
Gino Kenny: There seems to be consensus on the concept of universal care. This debate is on universal healthcare or Sláintecare, that is, a national health service. We all try to strive for that system. Such a system has been proven to have better outcomes for everybody. Whether people are on social welfare or are a millionaire, they should have access to universal healthcare. The outcomes are...
- Ceisteanna Pholasaí nó ar Reachtaíocht - Questions on Policy or Legislation (15 May 2024)
Gino Kenny: Today is Nakba Day. Seventy-six years ago today, 600,000 Palestinians were expelled from Palestine. Palestinians across the world mark this day and recall the catastrophe that continues to this day. No adjectives could sum up what is happening to the people in Gaza at the moment. There is persecution and the people are being tormented, brutalised, murdered, exiled and jailed. I could go...
