I am sure the Minister will not be surprised to hear I am very disappointed with his answer. It was largely quite evasive and basically stated this is not really his decision. He has not answered the key question I asked, which was whether he thinks it is a coincidence the vast majority of the planes going through Shannon are going to the Saudi-led coalition countries, and are going to facilitate that war on Yemen. If this is the case, and it clearly is from the facts that we can see, then we are complicit in the ongoing war against the Yemeni people and those thousands of deaths. Surely as a Minister who has a good track record of speaking out and being honest and upfront, he can acknowledge there is something very wrong here.
