Ag insint bréag arís. This is like Alice in Wonderland again. Michael Lowry is in the Opposition and "ag insint bréag arís" apparently does not actually mean "You are lying again" now. We have this continual demeaning of the Ceann Comhairle's office. We have repeatedly requested statements from the leader of Fine Gael. Fine Gael Ministers demanded accountability of leaders in this Dáil in the last term. They demanded statements in the Dáil. Their silence is deafening right now. Where are the statements from the leader of Fine Gael about the Senator Martin Conway affair? How can we not get the leader of Fine Gael, the Tánaiste, to come into this House to answer questions? Will the Taoiseach finally tell us why he demanded accountability of everybody else except for Fine Gael and Fianna Fáil leaders when controversies arise? When will we have these statements?
