I want my chance to conclude. The Minister is coming down to open hospitals but he has terrorised people from Valentia to Tarbert by taking away their medical cards. These are disabled, elderly or sick people. At the end of the day, the buck stops with him and the backbenchers who now seem to have a voice. Where was their voice when it came to standing up for people?
