What I want to say, and it is very current, relates to what has happened in terms of the problems that have arisen with the beef industry and the processing companies. That matter did not land on our table today or yesterday. It landed did so under a Fianna Fáil Government which had a close relationships with large corporate donors. Tribunals have proven that there was a direct correlation between favours being done for the meat industry and large donations made to Fianna Fáil by Goodman International, Master Meats, Hibernia and others. Let us not sit here and pretend that Fianna Fáil cares about farmers, carers or the children who do not get seats on school buses because it does do not.
