Mattie McGrath (Tipperary, Independent) | Oireachtas source

Yes. You can run, Minister, but you cannot hide. Your hiding days are over because you have abandoned the people of rural Ireland. There is the subterfuge and deceit the Minister and the Government goes on with, the blackguarding it does of farmers and the ineptitude of the Department. You are in bed with Mr. Goodman and the big beef barons. You are in bed with the big supermarkets and everything else. I am in this Chamber almost 16 years this month, thanks to the people of Tipperary.
