Jerry Buttimer (Fine Gael)

These are not Irish people worthy of support. I appeal through the Leader that this House stand up for the sovereign will of the people, which is to be an Irish nation proud of who we are. These people are terrorists and they should not be supported in any shape or form.

I also call for a debate on the Leader's programme for January. This morning, Senator Boyle sent out mixed messages. Will the Government be dissolved in January and will an election be called or will we continue until March or April? It is very important that we know this because the Green Party is half in and half out of Government.
