Madam, – Green Party Minister Eamon Ryan proposes broadening the base of the travel arrangements for St Patrick’s Day in view of the impending election, and that parties could be aligned with countries of similar political leaning.
He suggests, “Deputy Kenny could go to Germany and meet with Chancellor Merkel, while Deputy Gilmore could meet with his colleagues from the European Social Democratic party in Spain.”
On this note, may we suggest that Fianna Fáil deputies could be sent to Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan, and the entire Green Party to Iceland – on one-way tickets? – Yours, etc,
