Ken O'Flynn (Cork North-Central, Independent Ireland Party)

I welcome all my colleagues back after the recess. I wish them success from now until the end of the term. I was listening to the debate in my office while doing my constituency work. I have listened to the Minister’s speech. I noticed when I was entering the Chamber that my name was taken and used by another colleague, Deputy Coppinger, along with some lines. I do live rent free when she is not playing the victim of someone else. I must remind the Deputy, when she talks about people in Independent Ireland being racist that one of her party’s candidates spat in the face of a Jewish gentleman, which is currently being investigated by An Garda Síochána not so long ago
