Colm Keaveney (Galway East, Labour)

Speaking at the Sinn Féin Ard-Fheis in Belfast recently, Deputy Adams stated, "In the North, British Government policy and its continuing control of fiscal matters makes efforts to tackle the economic crisis more difficult." I find it curious that Sinn Féin is willing to accept British austerity measuers in Northern Ireland but no such adjustments or austerity measures in the Republic of Ireland.
