Paul Bradford (Fine Gael)

——-where the President, who appears to be going from bad to mad, is literally crushing hundreds of thousands of houses and moving almost a million people from their homesteads. I ask the Leader to request the Minister for Foreign Affairs to highlight, at European and UN level, this appalling act of barbarity by Robert Mugabe. There was a time the Members of these Houses and others supported that president for what he was trying to do for his country. However, we should now be prepared to say he is a shocking example of all that is bad in a dictator.
