Now, Sinn Féin Members come to the House like the mother of sorrows, not even acknowledging some of the good news. Can we not now acknowledge that at least we have turned a corner? Unemployment was approaching 15% and even higher. In a few months it will be below 10%. Those in Sinn Féin should at least acknowledge that without coming in with their heads down, suggesting nothing is happening and that the world is going to fall apart. Those in Sinn Féin should be sensible and honest with people for once.
