There is a gag that the Green Party is the cycling wing of Fine Gael. The manner in which this debate is being guillotined and the way in which the last few minutes have been taken up with the not-unimportant subject of cycle ways and active transport, which will preclude us from discussing amendments that deal with something that has a far greater impact on the climate crisis the Green Party claims to be concerned about, is cynical. It highlights the shameful and cynical tactics that have been deployed around the final Stages of this Bill and these amendments. It is good we have more active transport. It is not so good that we will not get the opportunity to discuss the fact that the Green Party is supporting the passage of a Bill, along with Fianna Fáil and Fine Gael, which breaks its promise not to develop more infrastructure in this country that will lock us into the use of fossil fuels, namely, LNGs.
