Ceisteanna ó Cheannairí - Leaders' Questions (22 Nov 2023)

Holly Cairns: We must have a ceasefire, not a temporary pause and the Taoiseach seemed to echo that sentiment. Getting a ceasefire will require pressure on Israel and we have the ability to apply pressure in that way. When it comes to sanctions at EU level, the Taoiseach has said he does not want us to be too far in front because people will not follow him. As it stands Ireland is being outflanked by...

Holly Cairns: I welcome that a deal to release hostages has been reached between Israel and Hamas. Everyone in this House is hopeful that Emily Hand will be among the first hostages to be released. My thoughts remain with her family at this extremely difficult time. I also welcome the release of 150 Palestinian women and children who have been detained in Israeli prisons. Taking hostages is a war crime...

Holly Cairns: Those kinds of platitudes and promises are something that people have heard so many times before. These bear no resemblance to the reality. The reports about disability services in Ireland are far from the language the Taoiseach is using there. It is language like "unmet needs" and "wasted lives". The Taoiseach has said that his Government was the one to ratify it. How many years later...

Ceisteanna ó Cheannairí - Leaders' Questions (21 Nov 2023)

Holly Cairns: The Government is running an advertising campaign to highlight the United Nations Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities. It tells us that disability rights are human rights. It goes on to state, "Everyone in Ireland has a role in advancing the United Nations Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities." I really cannot imagine a more tone-deaf marketing slogan....

Ceisteanna ó Cheannairí - Leaders' Questions (15 Nov 2023)

Holly Cairns: I want to explain to people watching what I mean by denying people the opportunity to vote on the motion. When a party like ours puts forward a motion and the Government puts forward a countermotion, we vote on that first and do not get to vote on the Social Democrats' motion. It is not misleading. I just wanted to explain that briefly.

Holly Cairns: When I asked the Taoiseach what the Government is doing, he said it is using its voice, which I recognise. The Irish voice has been important and an outlier in the European and western context, but that just illustrates how low the bar is. We are now asking for more than using our voice by taking actions. I recognise what the Taoiseach is saying about not being able to go out too far on a...

Holly Cairns: It is easy to feel completely hopeless and helpless watching the disaster unfold in Gaza. Today, there was a small glimpse of light.

For the more than 2 million people who remain in Gaza, the nightmare...
