Seanad: Order of Business (4 Nov 2014)

John Whelan: ...this country has at present is that the criminal gangs and criminal elements are driving a coach and four through the bail laws. They are putting what one might see on-screen in an episode of “Love/Hate” in the penny-ha'penny place. It is clear to the Garda and to everyone familiar with the issue that it has got the stage at which there no longer is any deterrent....

Seanad: Joint Policing Committees: Motion (15 Oct 2014)

Ivana Bacik: ...next year. That is really positive. Another positive is the investment in the Garda fleet with €10 million secured for more than the much-needed 400 new Garda vehicles. It has become quite fashionable to refer to the "Love/Hate" programme in the context of the budget, but I was struck by a comment of one of the gardaí in the programme about the quality of the car he was...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport and Communications: Strategic Plan 2012-17 and Other Issues: RTE (26 Mar 2014)

Patrick O'Donovan: I thank the RTE representatives for attending. Like the previous speakers, I support much of the work RTE does. In particular, initiatives in recent years like "Love/Hate" have lifted the bar. However, we would be failing in our duty in this committee if we did not separate what RTE is doing well from what it could be doing better. Following on from what previous speakers said about...

Seanad: Youth Justice Policy: Statements (28 Jan 2014)

Imelda Henry: ...socially, by failing to have a strong programme of intervention and prevention. Hand in hand with economic deprivation is the scourge of drugs, which destroys many young lives. The television series "Love/Hate" brings into sharp relief the misery, violence and oppression associated with drug dealing in areas of urban deprivation. The Minister, Deputy Fitzgerald, is in a key position to...

Seanad: Order of Business (26 Nov 2013)

Terry Leyden: ...legal aid being granted to people who commit crimes, come out on bail and commit more crimes. The judges, without even questioning the fact that they may have assets, like some of the people in "Love/Hate", grant free legal aid willy-nilly. The best lawyers are employed at the best fees to defend these people, who are indefensible.

Local Government Bill 2013: Second Stage (Resumed) (14 Nov 2013)

Eamonn Maloney: ...or a county councillor, is not a full-time job. Trying to delude ourselves and mislead the public by saying it is a full-time job, that it takes up all of one's time and that one cannot watch "Love/Hate" on the television because one is a full-time councillor is rubbish. One can push the work into a few days. I worked full-time during the 12 years I was a councillor. I had a real job,...

Health (Alteration of Criteria for Eligibility) (No. 2) Bill 2013: Second Stage (Resumed) (13 Nov 2013)

Peter Mathews: ...does nothing to put the Taoiseach's last four lines into reality. The evidence is that our society has become more polarised. An article by Vincent Browne in today's edition of The Irish Times shows how "Love/Hate", the programme everyone is talking about, is an expression - at one level only - of great hurt in our society. The establishment is where the levers of power and influence...

Report of the Joint Committee on Transport and Communications: Motion (8 Nov 2013)

Jerry Buttimer: ...with alcohol. Deputy Maureen O'Sullivan alluded to this in her remarks. Some television soap operas, such as "Fair City" and "Coronation Street", centre around the pub. Although I hardly dare to mention "Love/Hate" in the company of Deputy Eoghan Murphy, it, too, deals with the issue of drug and alcohol misuse, which has an implication for young people. Can we honestly continue the...

Cannabis Regulation: Motion (Resumed) [Private Members] (6 Nov 2013)

Derek Keating: ...individuals with zombie-like personalities walking around in some areas of my constituency. I am sure most if not all other Members have had similar experiences. Colloquial expressions heard in the series "Love/Hate" come to mind, such as "goofing off", or "strung out" individuals waiting for their next fix, contemplating their next crime and considering their next opportunistic attack...

Cannabis Regulation: Motion [Private Members] (5 Nov 2013)

Luke Flanagan: ...around which we could develop an industry. Under the Bill, the cannabis regulation authority would be accountable to Dáil select committees. Let us compare that proposal with the current position. To whom are John Gilligan or the "Love/Hate" character, Nidge, responsible? They are certainly not accountable to select committees. Over the next two days of debate, I look forward to...

Social Welfare and Pensions Bill 2013: Second Stage (Resumed) (24 Oct 2013) See 1 other result from this debate

Sandra McLellan: ...basic rates of social welfare. How it can continue to trot out that line with a straight face is beyond me. The idea that the Government has not cut basic rates is a fiction more creative than "Love/Hate". There can be no social welfare payment more basic than jobseeker's allowance. When someone is unfortunate enough to lose a job and his or her income dries up, it is the jobseeker's...

Child Sex Offenders (Information And Monitoring) Bill 2012: Second Stage [Private Members] (11 Oct 2013) See 1 other result from this debate

Peter Mathews: ...law works. I ask that the Government give it a go. If there is anything we can do to tone down the gratuitous availability of sexualisation across all areas, including imagery and programmes such as "Love/Hate", we must do it. I could not bring myself to watch "Love/Hate". I know that war is ugly, that limbs are blown off and families are ruined. I do not need to see the close-up...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine: Groceries Sector: Discussion with the Competition Authority and the National Consumer Agency (16 Jul 2013)

Tom Barry: ...but is not getting the value or the truth. Our system of labelling needs to be examined. One would need to have a degree in food labelling to understand which was the country of origin. The primary producers have had a love-hate relationship with the Competition Authority over the years. I am a tillage farmer and I have seen shiploads of grain coming into the country. However, I...

Taxi Regulation Bill 2012 [Seanad]: Second Stage (Resumed) (3 Jul 2013)

Maureen O'Sullivan: ...with which they are involved are grateful. On the downside, they take chances and we have all seen examples of U-turns in the middle of the street and of stopping in the middle of the road to let fares out. We know that there is something of a love-hate relationship between taxi drivers and cyclists. However, if they could operate on the basis of mutual respect and if each of them kept...

Seanad: Criminal Justice (Amendment) Act 2009: Motion (19 Jun 2013)

Martin Conway: ...billions. We are dealing with absolute greed and they will stop at nothing. They would kill their own families to amass wealth. We got a glimpse of this in last year's award winning RTE series "Love/Hate". We got a glimpse of the absolute brutality and savagery of the people involved who have no regard for authority or the Government. If they thought they would get away with shooting...

Ireland and the Eurozone: Motion (Resumed) [Private Members] (22 May 2013)

Olivia Mitchell: ...relationship between urban and rural areas in Ireland does not blind us to the fact that we are all part of a single entity that is interdependent and mutually sustaining. It is precisely that love-hate relationship we have with Europe, despite all its warts, that makes us realise we must face up to dealing with those warts. We must be part of the debate and try to mould the Union such...

Seanad: Order of Business (22 May 2013)

Colm Burke: ...it into perspective as regards the contribution they make. I will touch slightly on the matter relating to the Minister for Justice and Equality, Deputy Shatter. Senators should revisit the series "Love/Hate" to see the real issues in criminal activity in this country-----

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport and Communications: Budgetary Position and Editorial Policy: Discussion with RTE (22 May 2013)

..., home produced programming, and 19 of the top 20 programmes broadcast on any channel available to Irish viewers in 2012 were on RTE television. RTE television drama has registered its highest ratings and critical success in years, with the third series of "Love/Hate" proving to be the television talking point of last year. From Katie Taylor’s extraordinary gold medal fight in...

Seanad: Confidence in Minister for Justice and Equality and Defence: Motion (27 Feb 2013)

Colm Burke: My colleagues on the Opposition benches should look at the television series "Love Hate" because that is what they left us with in certain areas of the country. We must adjust to responding to that type of society, which is what the Minister is doing. The Fianna Fáil Party was in office for 14 years and the Cork prison issue was constantly being put forward. That party said it was going to...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport and Communications: Funding the Broadcasting Sector: Discussion with Independent Broadcasters of Ireland (20 Feb 2013)

.... Tim Collins: I have two points on Deputy Michael Colreavy's comments. I agree with the Deputy that it is necessary in certain circumstances for RTE to chase ratings. The very successful series "Love/Hate" was huge and RTE got great ratings from it. RTE looks for ratings also through broadcasting and funding Champions League soccer, "Grey's Anatomy" and a lot of other imported...
