- Confidence in the Minister for Justice: Motion (5 Dec 2023)
Mick Barry: A riot was organised by Ireland's far right 12 days ago. It was organised by racist organisations and fascist organisers. Shop workers were terrorised and bus workers, gardaí and firefighters were attacked. What did the Tánaiste do tonight? Instead of making criticism, when he looks around the Dáil, of those Deputies who promote the talking points of Ireland's far right and...

- Immigration: Motion [Private Members] (6 Dec 2023)
Mick Barry: It is a matter of public record. I will move on. What image does McGregor promote to his young male followers? It is an ultra-macho image and an image of toxic masculinity.

- Ceisteanna - Questions: Departmental Offices (6 Dec 2023)
Mick Barry: Yesterday, the Taoiseach took umbrage when I said I thought he was washing his hands on the issue of the genocide in Gaza. To be clear, the Government has made strong criticisms of the Israeli Government and it voted the right way at the United Nations but Israel has ignored that United Nations vote so more must now be done. However, the Government is not doing more. Action must be taken...
