- Confidence in the Minister for Justice: Motion (5 Dec 2023)
Paul Murphy: The Government fundamentally legitimised the rhetoric and the dehumanisation of the far right by creating inhuman, completely unfair discrimination between asylum seekers. It is treating Ukrainians the way decent people would expect refugees to be treated but treating people who are coming from other conflicts, such as in Syria, Iraq or Afghanistan, in a completely inhumane way, by putting...
- Confidence in the Minister for Justice: Motion (5 Dec 2023)
Paul Murphy: We saw more of it today with the Government choosing to say that this moment is one, like Micheál Martin shows, to say the far left is effectively as bad as the far right, giving out about some leaflet that People Before Profit produced in Cork. What did you say?

- Confidence in the Minister for Justice: Motion (5 Dec 2023)
Paul Murphy: Where was the left in that? The left was standing with the refugees in Sandwith Street, trying to protect them from the attacks of the far right.

Paul Murphy: People Before Profit has no confidence in the Minister for Justice or this Government. We want the Government to go. The Government is responsible for record levels of rent and homelessness and for almost record house prices.

Paul Murphy: -----to this abuse and incitement we have seen from the far right? It has responded by conceding ground. Look at what Deputy Coveney told the Financial Times just last week.
