Mary Lou McDonald (Dublin Central, Sinn Fein) | Oireachtas source

We need better than leaving children with scoliosis on waiting lists for years and breaking promises to them again and again. That is what this Government has done. We need an end to policies that leave workers and families worse off since you came to office due to rip-off prices. The out-of-control costs must end. We can and we will do so much better so.

Bring on the election. Bring on the day on which people will have the choice as to who will lead the next Government. That day is long overdue.
