I think it is time now to stop all the tricks and the games of snakes and ladders and have a bit of cop-on and respect for the people, as well as this House. Call the election. Let the dog see the rabbit. Let us out there, rather than playing games up and down, backward and forward, running over to Joe Biden and back. He is afraid he will not be Taoiseach again and that he will not be over there in March.
