Order of Business
10:30 am
Susan O'Keeffe (Labour)
Libertas represents a new phenomenon in Irish politics. It is called the privatisation of politics. This is about people whose businesses are shrouded in secrecy providing funding for campaigns, largely in secret, and whose personal business aspirations are sidestepped every time they are raised. This is a campaign being run for the private aspirations of private people. I want to know what is going on behind the scenes, in particular with a man called Crispin Odey, who with his wife, Nichola Pease, have been called the Posh and Becks of finance in the UK.
