What Deputy Cullinane wishes to do is his matter. I do not agree with, and I do not engage much in, the over-the-top criticism that is often presented in this House in respect of Sinn Féin. However, in the context of Sinn Féin undergoing its own internal pay review, it is ironic that this has not even been mentioned. Sinn Féin uses terms such as "double standards", "leadership", "fairness" and "sleveen politics", but those in the party come in here and protest that they are not taking an increase while they are actually giving themselves an internal increase. That, Deputy Munster, is sleveen politics of the highest order.
