Ruairi Ó Murchú: I made an oversight in my last interaction with the Taoiseach. While dealing with the UN, I should have also have raised the case of Private Seán Rooney.

This is something that needs to be addressed. I have spoken to the...

Ceisteanna - Questions: Climate Action Plan (23 Oct 2024)

Jennifer Whitmore: At the start of this term the public was promised a Government that would be green and would be environmentally ambitious.

Ceisteanna - Questions: Taoiseach's Meetings and Engagements (23 Oct 2024)

Paul Murphy: The Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk has likened the German-led European Sky Shield Initiative, ESSI, to Israel's iron dome. The comparison is not simply that it is an attempt to form some sort of iron dome, but at the heart of the ESSI is Arrow 3, an Israeli-American missile system used by and supplied to Europe by the genocidal state of Israel to the tune of billions of euro. It is...
