The support to get rid of this mandatory three-day wait was pretty emphatic.

Politics is changing rapidly in Britain and Ireland. Whoever becomes the next British prime minister must recognise these new political realities.

There is an urgent need for preparations on Irish unity and I call on Simon Harris to support Sinn Féin's legislation in the Dáil next week.

I am glad that the Tánaiste has at last acknowledged the need to prepare for Irish reunification.

We believe that there is widespread support across society for removing the mandatory three-day wait and that the legislation will be passed

The proposals brought to Cabinet today by the Tánaiste will not deal with the problem of dereliction head on.

If a new Derelict Property Tax is to be successful, it is essential that revenues generated are reinvested into local communities and returned to the local government sector to support regeneration activity.

It is time for the law to change, and this would be a significant move towards compassion and ensuring barriers to women accessing healthcare are removed.

Engagement across society was at the heart and the core of planning for unity.

There will be a referendum. Our objective is to secure that by the year 2030 but the referendums will happen and the preparations need to be made now.

A genocide is occurring and tens of thousands of people have lost their lives, including footballers.

It's not simply a football match, it's about confronting, facing down, and making clear to Netanyahu and his regime that he cannot slaughter, he cannot slaughter wholesale the entire Palestinian population, and expect the world to watch on…

decisions on migration should be taken, must be taken by the people of this country

We have been making this point for a very, very long time that it is important that we are prepared, that the work is done now, and that it is at this stage irresponsible for anybody in political leadership to bury their head in the sand…

And of course that has to include Unionism.

the “organised mobs” who burnt families out of their homes were reminiscent of the Bombay Street pogroms of 1969

there is no support for the Irish soccer team to play under our tricolour against Israel at the current time

it would be unconscionable and unspeakable

There is no end to RTÉ's sense of entitlement in its attitude to the spending of public money… and no end, it seems, either to the lack of oversight from your Government.

When we come together, when we work collaboratively, when we show up for each other, we can win.

I listened 'in horror' to Trump's suggestion of moving Palestinians out of Gaza and resettling them permanently elsewhere.

The only route to peace and security is a permanent ceasefire, followed by a negotiated settlement that guarantees peace and security for both Palestinians and Israelis through a just and sustainable two-state solution.

I think the bottom line is just respect the Constitution and how it was drafted up.

I have an Administration--not just an administration but a government--that is trying to clear me for exercising my First Amendment rights.

The time for placing blame on the tribe has passed. We are not the same reservation we were in 2012. We have a plan. Now we need the means to make it happen.
