Is Bertie too scared to debate?
I'm disgusted at the news that the Government is planning to table a motion that would absolve the Taoiseach from taking unexpected questions from opposition leaders.
The matter is expected to come up tomorrow during a meeting of party whips, which will discuss Dáil reform and Chief Party Whip Tom Kitt will propose that questions should be submitted in advance.
Labour is furious about the proposals.
It said that it undermines tradition and sensitive questions will be appropriated to other ministers instead of the Taoiseach.
I'm furious at the proposals myself. Is Bertie scared of being brought to task on key issues?
Well done to Tom Kitt for his glorious proposition! You have a (brown) nose for good government!
Reel in the era of Herr Bertie!
