- Seanad: Order of Business (23 Sep 2009)
Terry Leyden: Further to Senator Quinn's point, I resent the actions of the UK Independence Party and Mr. Nigel Farage in particular. The party's avowed aim is to withdraw from the European Union and basically to destroy it. It is making efforts to influence the electorate into voting "No" on 2 October which is against the best interests of the Irish people. These are the people who want to stop...
- Seanad: Order of Business (23 Sep 2009)
Terry Leyden: -----to some of the people who are coming over here to try to influence the Irish people in this regard. Finally, this is the most defining moment in Irish politics. The point about the referendum is that it is everyone's individual right to vote on 2 October and each vote is equal, whether from the President, from every member of the Government or from every individual. That is a special...

- Seanad: Planning and Development (Amendment) Bill 2009: Second Stage (7 Oct 2009)

- Seanad: Order of Business (8 Oct 2009)
Terry Leyden: I do not wish to enter the debate on expenses. The country is facing so many situations that the debate is a distraction.

The next Sunday Independent and Sunday Tribune issues will show the...
- Seanad: Order of Business (8 Oct 2009)
Terry Leyden: I rose to ask the Leader a question. I commend everyone involved in winning last Friday's referendum. No single group or party was responsible for that success, since it was the choice of the people, in their wisdom, to vote "Yes" decisively. Arising from the referendum, will the Leader arrange an early debate? Poland will sign the treaty next Sunday and I am confident the Czech Republic...
