There is no "but". There is absolutely no "but" when someone loses a loved one.

I thank Deputies Eamon Ryan and Harty for their support. I know it is not easy for them in the situation but it is sincerely given.

To Deputy Danny Healy-Rae, I am irrevocably and totally and utterly opposed to his stance on this. I think it is utterly irresponsible for him to continually repeat "facts" like 1.5 pints is safe. That is a dangerous and misleading thing to say and I do not accept it.
