Clare Daly: I find myself agreeing with my fellow trade unionist, Deputy Ross, in his analysis of the role of some of the trade union leaders. My union has a fee half of what Deputy Ross is being charged but we probably still get comparably little service. It is a great irony to have to witness and listen to the comments of some of the Labour Deputies who have tried to pose themselves as the great...

Protection of Life During Pregnancy Bill 2013: Second Stage (20 Jun 2013)

Clare Daly: I do not believe, as has been alleged by one contributor, that abortion is the divisive issue it once was. Many people in Irish society have very different views on the subject, as is their right, but they also recognise it is a private health matter that primarily is one for the woman herself, as well as her doctors. Repeated opinion polls have revealed the fact that the overwhelming...

Is it not the case that the peace talks are being held up by the American-backed rebels...
