Carbon tax row
Deputy Boyd Barrett’s call was drowned out by the continuing dispute between the Taoiseach and Deputy Martin over carbon tax and whether the House had been misled. The Chair repeatedly warned Members, but the exchange degenerated into interruptions, accusations and calls for order before Deputy Boyd Barrett was allowed to proceed.
The Taoiseach breached Standing Orders.

I did not. I quoted directly what the Taoiseach just quoted.

The Taoiseach should not be up to such things. He is not honest with people in telling us about carbon tax. He has not been honest about it.
