Taoiseach and party unity

Summary

Senator Craughwell congratulated the Taoiseach on uniting his parliamentary party. The chair and other Senators responded in light banter, including jokes about switching sides and returning next week.

I congratulate the Taoiseach. He went into a parliamentary party meeting of what appeared to be a divided party and he came out with a united party behind him. That was some achievement and he deserves to be congratulated on it. I am glad he will be given time to leave office at his own bidding.

Does the Senator want to change over to the other side?
