Enda Kenny (Mayo, Fine Gael)

There is no such magic wand. There are challenges ahead and I absolutely respect the understanding of the people with which we are obliged to deal. They know that this problem will not go away or rectify itself. They also know that strong leadership is required, on the part of both the Government and the European Union, in order to bring the country back into line and turn the Union into the entity I know it can be in the future.
