We all receive letters and go to people's doors, and we know we are in crisis.We are in the midst of two crises, a climate crisis and a cost-of-living crisis.

Seanad: Safe Access to Termination of Pregnancy Services Bill 2021: Committee Stage (10 Feb 2022)

Pauline O'Reilly: I was watching some of the proceedings from my office. I think there is an awful lot of purposeful confusion, dare I say. I am sure of what Senator Mullen is trying to do here.
