I might say to Deputy Adams while I am on my feet that a number of his people - at least those associated with the party he leads - were most insulting to ordinary people who attended a party meeting in Limerick last night. I am quite sure the Deputy might send a message to them. I do not believe he would condone some of the language that was directed towards women who had attended the meeting and were walking home as ordinary citizens by people who were carrying banners associated with his party. The Deputy might send them a message, please.

I will not accept the Taoiseach's word for what transpired in Limerick last night.

Of course not.

Blame the referee.

Judge and jury.

However, let me say clearly that I stand over the principle of peaceful demonstrations which should not be insulting or threatening to anyone.

Deputy Coonan would be very interested in that.
