Financial Emergency Measures in the Public Interest (No. 2) Bill 2010: Second Stage (Resumed)
10:00 pm
Jerry Buttimer (Fine Gael)
The Government said there would be political reform but it did not do it; it funked it. The Government picks on the most needy, the people on the minimum wage, and then it goes after retired public servants. The litmus test of this budget is that it was not pro-jobs nor did it protect the most vulnerable and there was no stimulus plan. The Government made a complete hames of political reform.
