I don't normally agree with the opposition, but it is ludicrous to allow this to go ahead. Shame is right.

Even with photographic evidence damning his actions the natural instinct of ex FG’er Lowry is to lie.

This is undemocratic and shows us what the government thinks of those who didn't vote for them

Time for Michael D to intervene.

You have got to be kidding, he’s never interfered in anything, he’s not gonna start now.

He has initiated more constitutional reviews than his predecessors.

Really? That surprises me, but I stand corrected. Let’s see what he’s gonna do then.

👆 unironically, this is his literal role because this is unconstitutional

Embarrassed to say I didn't know this. I'm sure it was covered in school but it obviously hasnt been mentioned enough as an adult

He can't realistically refuse legislation on a whim, but if he suspects it's unconstitutional he can refer it to a Council of State to decide. That's it, that's the role, but it's an important one because it keeps legislation within the constitution.
