Leo Varadkar (Dublin West, Fine Gael) | Oireachtas source

This is a show motion. It is a publicity stunt designed to get coverage and air time for Sinn Féin politicians who have no real solutions to the problems our country face - just snappy soundbites that tested well with their expensive focus groups. It is a waste of parliamentary time as well. Let us not forget that only last week, Sinn Féin wasted 45 minutes of parliamentary time calling the same vote twice while complaining that we did not have enough time to discuss important legislation such as that on mica.
