Carbon Budget: Motion (6 Apr 2022)

John Lahart: I have great respect for my constituency colleague, Deputy Paul Murphy, and he makes very compelling arguments. The difference between being on the Opposition benches and these benches is that governments have to govern. Revolution along the lines of which he is talking might be welcome, desirable even-----

Carbon Budget: Motion (6 Apr 2022)

John Lahart: I am just wondering about time needed, given the pace at which change takes place. I was reminded continuously during the Deputy's contribution of the movie "Don't Look Up".

If they understood half of what was going on - given their youth, not their lack of intelligence - they would wonder...

It is cleansed to a...

Circular Economy, Waste Management (Amendment) and Minerals Development (Amendment) Bill 2022: Second Stage (30 Mar 2022)

John Lahart: Yes. Even there a bit of education is needed because apparently they are not great in every aspect of the garden but are suitable for particular plants. Sometimes I think we are too late. A piecemeal manner of addressing this will not work. If you want to see the appetite for plastic, go into your supermarket.
