Caoimhghín Ó Caoláin (Cavan-Monaghan, Sinn Fein)

I will conclude with this point. The Government's proposals are absolutely unacceptable. I reiterate the Government has no moral or democratic right to proceed with the imposition of a budget that will lead to more poverty, unemployment and social misery across this land. The thing to do now is for the Taoiseach to go to the Park and allow the people have their chance to pass judgment.
