They need to sort out their 'line departments' in FF if they have Child Pornography in the Climate Change section...

If that's how messy their manifesto is..

I agreed with him at first but then he kept going too long making the same point..

And then tried to insinuate that she was running down a policy to protect children from online pornography..

Think he overreached himself to be honest.

Yes and showed a bit of passion in doing so.

She's a bit shook after it alright. Excessive desk banging and voice quivering.

The Dept for Communications, Climate Action and Environment. Chambers said all their policies for the whole dept are in there. He won the argument.

Along with gender equality if I heard correctly.

First word out of her mouth, Tax.

Calhoun

Really good point from Eoin O'Broin about just slapping taxes on things from a green perspective as the conversation moves to what people are loosing and not gaining.

Brilliant. Absolutely brilliant.

Ok. They way CB read it out it sounded like it was written in a climate change section of the FF manifesto? Maybe the manifesto isn't clear?

So an efficiently run airlines offer cheaper seats than a bloated unionised inefficient semi state rail operator..

10 euro charge to the tax payer directly, no way the airlines will cover it and Ryanair will make a point of saying this is the goverment tax.

He made a fool out of her. He said all our policies for whole dept are in there. We're here to discuss the climate change part.....why are you focusing on the Communications part.

And they'd be right

Richard Bruton looks bored out of his tree.

We need to cut the herd of TDs while we are at it. Way too many of them.

I read the comment initially as the manifesto had a section headed Climate Change. And in that was a point on child pornography.

And of course see what the department covers now. I think the department needs breaking up, covers too much. Think climate change should have one of its own.

Bizarre debate....Claire Byrne veering between attacking people and shouting them down, or letting them ramble on aimlessly for waaaay to long.
