Confidence in Government: Motion (resumed)
11:00 am
Billy Kelleher (Cork North Central, Fianna Fail)
I welcome Deputies George Lee and Maureen O'Sullivan to the House and wish them well in their role as public representatives.
The decision to table a motion of no confidence was taken at a time of palpable excitement and joy in the Fine Gael Party following the election results it recorded on Friday last. Tabling such a motion on foot of a good election is akin to a man who has a good wedding night deciding to marry again on the following Tuesday. Unfortunately, the second night is never as good as the first.
