On hearing there would be cuts to the education grant, the same Deputy resigned his position as his party's spokesperson but did not resign the more lucrative position as chairman of the Oireachtas Joint Committee on Education and Science. It seems as though this green virus of cynicism is spreading to other members of the Green Party in this House. Members should have a debate on this issue because what the Green Party tried to achieve last night was nothing more than debasing the manner in which this House works.
