Peadar Tóibín (Meath West, Sinn Fein) | Oireachtas source

We are a couple of minutes into the debate and the name-calling, etc. has started. Just two nights ago, a Deputy was reduced to tears as a result of the level of aggression in the Chamber. Character assassination, sneering and name-calling do not constitute political debate, they represent an effort to close down discussion and censor people.
