Louise O'Reilly (Dublin Fingal, Sinn Fein) | Oireachtas source

Mention was made there of the old shock tactics and graphic language. Sure, it is all they have left at this stage. It is a little bit sad that we have people coming in here to do the bidding of a certain well-known businessman who I will not name. We all know who he is. Irish women access abortions every day. They travel from every county on the island every single day of the week, including from Offaly, Meath, Louth and Kerry. What we can do is make it safe and affordable because that is what people voted for. One can choose to ignore the vote. That is fine. However, no one should come to the House and try to inject all of these shock tactics, US nonsense and the use of this type of language because all that does is achieve the opposite of what the people involved claim to have come here to do. There is no compassion in what Deputy Nolan said at all.
