Richard O'Donoghue (Limerick County, Independent) | Oireachtas source

I would have, if the Luas could connect me to my own county. Did the Deputy know, seeing as he is so smart, that I cannot use the train to come to Dublin because the train will not get me home if we are delayed in Dáil Éireann? The Deputy should know, smart man that he is, that if I get the green bus, it goes from 23 miles from my house, where there are no parking facilities, so I cannot use any public transport. I have to get someone to drive me to the green bus stop and collect me. That costs more in carbon tax. It is more fuel efficient for me to drive to Dublin, until I get here, and I cannot get in or out of the city. The Deputies are very smart men when they are quoting things, but they have nothing to back it up.
