I do not think the media should engage in the kind of commentary I heard this morning, when a responsible broadcaster read what was described as a very important comment, which was "we are being governed by a crowd of eejits in Leinster House". That is not responsible commentary, in my opinion. We should examine the issues in a calm manner, not in the interests of political advantage but in the interests of the welfare of the citizens of this State, particularly its young people and children.
