- Ceisteanna ó Cheannairí - Leaders' Questions (29 Nov 2022)
Mary Lou McDonald: -----in a bid to defend the indefensible.

Mary Lou McDonald: Nobody should be surprised because this is straight out of the Fine Gael playbook - delivering for those in high places while ordinary people struggle to make ends meet.
