The Leader is correct that Senator McDowell is not filibustering; I am and I regard it as a perfectly legitimate political tactic to get rid of a Bill that is absolutely ridiculous and outrageous. I will continue to filibuster unless and until Standing Orders of this House remove the possibility to do so. I remember one wonderful occasion when Senator Pól Ó Foighíl spoke for three hours in English and then repeated it the next morning as Gaelige.
