- Leaders' Questions (9 Jul 2015)
Peadar Tóibín: Deputy Stagg is absolutely right when he disagrees with the Tánaiste's argument that cutting the incomes of lone parents will get them out of the poverty trap. The two-faced aspect of his actions is that he is expressing such views locally while voting the other way in the Dáil.
- Leaders' Questions (9 Jul 2015)
Peadar Tóibín: Even worse, he is whipping all the other Labour Party Deputies to make this deep cut in the incomes of people who are in poverty.
- Leaders' Questions (9 Jul 2015)
Peadar Tóibín: Duplicity is also at the heart of the Clerys debacle. Almost a month has passed since the staff and concession holders of Clerys were turfed out onto the street by liquidators. All they have received from the Labour Party so far is a two-faced response. The Tánaiste and her Government colleagues have described the actions of the new employers as absolutely despicable, insensitive and...

Peadar Tóibín: -----in an effort to insulate their investments from the responsibilities they have to their staff. The fact is that both the State and the workers are getting stuffed over and over again. We have complete inertia from the Labour Party with regard to its response.

- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Finance, Public Expenditure and Reform: Quantitative Easing: Discussion (8 Jul 2015)
Peadar Tóibín: The presentation so far has been very interesting. The country has recently experienced a deleveraging by the banks and by citizens, which has a counter-effect on the process. The witnesses mentioned how cash and currency can be created. We are seeing the opposite effect in the economy with regard to that. I have a question on the Irish banks. Are they soaking up this quantitative easing...
