Looking at this and how the Minister has explained it, it is slightly incorrect. It is not just a humanitarian support loan, which we have given generously to. This is a loan we are guaranteeing which we are somehow going to have to collect from Russia. Good luck with that and trying to collect something off the Russians if they lose. The reality here is there is no security. There is a huge problem when it comes to our neutrality. It brings us in the back door, without a shadow of a doubt, of supporting military aid into a country and this undermines our entire neutrality. I have to ask: when is enough enough? The cost of living in this country is absolutely crazy. We currently have 17,000 men, women and children on the streets of this country without houses. We have USC charges that were brought in and we were told, "Oh yes, we are going to get rid of those in a couple of years" but we are still paying them. Food is up by 7.6% this year. The price of a litre of petrol is €1.70 and the price of diesel is €1.69. Rents are up 97% in Dublin. In parts of Blackpool in Cork, rents have risen by up to 210% in ten years. When is enough enough? We have given over half a billion euro to Ukraine. We have been very generous and decent, with €173 million in humanitarian aid and €200 million in legal aid, and we have spent €1.8 billion to €1.4 billion on accommodation.
