If many of those who are lecturing this Government about morality were put in a position of power and responsibility, what action would they take? Would they, for example, turn their backs on America and Britain in the context of the Shannon overflights? The Taoiseach recently referred to the close relationship between Ireland and America and he put it in very simple terms. He said if ever Ireland, small and all as it is, needed help on Irish matters or within the international arena, he could lift the telephone and speak to the most powerful man in the world within an hour. If there are political difficulties on this island and between these islands, he can call on our political friends on Capitol Hill who will respond, as they have done over the decades, to help us out of our difficulties.
