This Government has let down those in plant hire, those farmers, taxi drivers, the hauliers, contractors and fishers, and the ordinary people who this Government says it represents and lives among. The reality is it has blamed Trump for absolutely everything. We have heard Government Members getting up and speaking about Trump. Donald Trump is not in charge of the National Oil Reserves Agency, NORA. He is not in charge of the carbon tax in this country. He is not in charge of VAT in this country and he is not in charge of excise. What did Seán Canney do? He told people to go out and walk or cycle. What did big Jim - James Bond himself - go out and do? He said we would turn the Army on our own citizens, which was reminiscent of something you would hear in South America. It is reminiscent of a Peronist. Then we have the man who turned away from the woman in Kanturk not so long ago during the last election and who did not want to hear, and all of a sudden he is gaslighting the country saying he is concerned about the 900,000 people on waiting lists. He is concerned about the 60,000 people on housing lists and about the 116,000 people who are waiting for housing assistance payment, HAP. That is what this Government is concerned about. It is concerned about nothing only serving itself. I applaud Deputy Healy-Rae. I say "Well done" to him for having a bit of backbone. If any of those TDs from Fianna Fáil and Fine Gael who turned up at the protests down in Whitegate or anywhere else in the country and said they were with the protestors and were going to get rid of Micheál Martin in a couple of weeks had any bit of backbone, they should join with Deputy Healy-Rae, vote against this Government and let us call the election.
