- Confidence in the Ceann Comhairle: Motion (1 Apr 2025)

What we witnessed last week would not be tolerated in any workforce or...

We came together on this side of the House to form a Government and those opposite tried to disrupt the process and lost. We put forward modest changes to Standing Orders to ensure everyone's mandate in the Dáil would be respected.
- Confidence in the Ceann Comhairle: Motion (1 Apr 2025)
Mary Butler: They objected to that. We put it to a vote and they lost. Sinn Féin has a chequered view of the ballot box and it really only plays second fiddle to its agenda. Its stated objective is to undermine the Dáil and Government and create mayhem. We know of its lack of loyalty to the institutions of the State.
