Finance Bill 2003 [ Certified Money Bill ] : Second Stage.

 

Senator Ross is an intelligent and articulate businessman, but it is time he changed the record. I take exception to him standing up on every occasion and saying that Opposition parties oppose just for the sake of doing so. That is wrong. As a new Fine Gael Member of the Oireachtas, I believe we are putting together credible Opposition points. In regard to every point I have made, all I had to do was to listen to the people on the street for their views. People are angry. People who do not even have an interest in politics are saying that they are being told lies because there is less money in their pockets today than there was six months ago. They are now saying that there is something wrong.
