I join colleagues on this side of the House in calling for a debate today on - where to begin - the bailout, the IMF-EU deal, what the Government is laughably describing as the national recovery plan etc. Fianna Fáil Members should listen to themselves. Clearly, they are still in denial if they are welcoming the deal that has been done and if they are asking what is wrong with looking for a little help from our friends. That is very different to what they were saying previously when they were denying that any bailout was forthcoming-----
