Ann Ormonde (Fianna Fail)

We are at a political crossroads. Let there be no doubt about that. There will be a redrawing of the political landscape. That is coming regardless of whether we like it. I do not know how things are going to shape up but change is coming loud and clear in terms of the future of all our parties. The public is looking for change. I am not saying we are not the brightest or that any other party is the brightest either. Let us not take solace in anything in the House today. All I can say is that I am sick to death of the kind of politics we have been playing in this Chamber. I want to be elected to discuss issues. I was never interested in political assassination. I was never interested in personality politics and I never will be.
