Danny Healy-Rae: I can tell him there are very good suckler farmers in south and west Kerry and they pride themselves on farming and producing good weanlings.

Project Ireland 2040: Statements (Resumed) (21 Feb 2018)

Danny Healy-Rae: These people have an idea that rural Ireland is a burden on the State. They complained about 500,000 one-off houses being built around the country.
