Strokestown eviction row
The row continued with interruptions, procedural interventions, and exchanges about the Taoiseach's 'balaclava' remark. Deputy Doherty maintained the Taoiseach refused to condemn what happened in Roscommon, and the Leas-Cheann Comhairle eventually moved on to the next speaker.
When I spoke to the family today, they told me to tell the Taoiseach that they were in a very vulnerable position and at the end of their tether.

The Taoiseach will call people thugs, but he will not call out what happened to these Irish citizens. It is disgraceful.

The Taoiseach should withdraw the remark.

It was about my balaclava slipping. It was disgraceful. They are diversionary tactics because the Taoiseach refuses to condemn what happened to Irish citizens at Strokestown.

I suggest they both read the "Blacks" when they are available and perhaps we might revisit the matter.

It was very clear. There is no need to read the "Blacks".
