Seanad debates

Address by President of the European Parliament.
I attended a public meeting in Dublin last night and met a gentleman who told me that he voted "No" in the previous referendum but this time he was going to vote "Yes" because he has discovered that the European Parliament had introduced a law which will ensure that he gets to see all of Ireland's soccer matches on terrestrial television. He wants to take a stand against Sky and feels the most effective way of doing that is to vote "Yes". That is a very practical experience for a citizen.
