Comment on this

As the Government Party are obviously very tired and as the President of the Executive Council seems to prefer the effort to get to bed rather than that the affairs of this State should be fully discussed in this House, I beg to move that we report progress.

The Chair is not accepting it.

Would it not be very good to give that Party opposite a night in which they might manage to get their courage up?

Comment on this

It would not need as much spirit as is required on the opposite benches.

Mr. Brodrick

That is a very ignorant remark from a Trinity student.

What about the courage now, Deputy Fitzgerald-Kenney?

Comment on this

Deputy MacEntee can talk occasionally, but he wants to get to bed like the rest of his Party. The Deputy wants everybody gagged but himself.

Send out the search party.

There is more likelihood of the Deputy being sent out if he does not keep order.
