Enda Kenny (Mayo, Fine Gael)

The first time I asked the Taoiseach a question on Leader's Questions, I asked about a woman in hospital. The Taoiseach's response was that it was too facile to raise such a case. I reject the charge the Taoiseach has made today. Shame on him and his Government for allowing what is happening to happen. The Taoiseach has said that no such decision has been made. If not, why are thousands of people marching to the House today? I will tell him why. This is their cry for help. Who speaks for these people? The Taoiseach certainly does not these days.
