Its attitude to appointments to the board of IMMA is a further illustration of this. A central plank of the Fine Gael Party's election platform in...

Leaders' Questions (30 Sep 2014)

Gerry Adams: Deirtear sa Ghaeilge go bhfilleann an feall ar an bhfeallaire. Dhein an Taoiseach rudaí le déanaí nach raibh soiléir agus oscailte. Cleasaíocht a bhí ann.

The Government should think about the deep damage that is being done to communities and families and our...
