People travel overseas to do things overseas that aren't legal in Ireland all the time. You know, are we going to stop people going to Las Vegas? Are we going to stop people going to Amsterdam? There are things that are illegal in Ireland, and we don't prevent people from travelling overseas to avail of them.

- Doctor
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
It's not something that defines me. I'm not a half-Indian politician or a doctor politician or a gay politician for that matter... it is part of my character, I suppose.
- Health
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I've realised that doctors can only help change a certain number of patients, but a Minister of Health can really change things.

- Go
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I miss being able to have a drink in my local pub, which I can't do anymore, or being able to go to the shops without every second person staring at me and looking at my basket to see what I'm buying.
- Law
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I think there should be a law that would allow the Oireachtas to take pensions away from people. That would go for corrupt politicians; it would go for public servants who failed miserably or were incompetent.
- Myself

- Nov 07, 2020
I'll demand of myself and my own government what, in the past, I insisted of others.

Fine Gael is the party of opportunity, and no matter what background you come from, we give people a chance, and it gave me a chance.
- Family
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I always think that friends and family are off-bounds. I went into politics; they didn't.
- Know
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I just want people to know that whatever decisions are made on any issue, I'll make them according to what I believe is in the public interest and my own conscience.

- See
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Geographically, we are at the periphery of Europe, but I don't see Ireland in that way. The way I see us is as an island at the center of the world.
- Free
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
If Britain doesn't stay in the Single Market or Customs Union, we are very much in favor of a free trade agreement between the U.K. and Europe. We don't want Britain to be punished for its decision to leave, and it is not in our interests for Britain to be punished because we may be the ones who lose out as much if not more than them.
- American President
- |
- Nov 07, 2020

- Nov 07, 2020
My difficulty with the whole right-left construct is that I don't think it describes modern politics or the modern choices that people face in the world.
- Myself
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
If I was to describe myself in terms of a political philosophy, I'd cast myself as a social and economic liberal, which is typically what people describe as being left-of-centre on social issues and right-of-centre on economic issues.
- Face
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
It's not that I'm afraid to be tagged with the label of right-wing or even centre-right; I just don't believe it properly describes either the choice that we face politically or what I'm trying to say.
- Encompass
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
What I would like to build is a new centre, a wider, broader centre, which would encompass a lot of different philosophies - you know, the philosophy that I'm putting forward that is a market liberal philosophy and a socially liberal philosophy but would have room in it for a broader church than that.

The traditional divide between left and right, capital and labor, small state and big state, high taxes and low taxes doesn't define politics in the way it did in the past.

- Politics
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Neither of my parents are involved in politics or anything like that, but my dad is political, certainly, and we would have always talked about politics and religion and money, and all those things that you're not supposed to talk about at the dinner table, we did.
- Man
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I was with my mum in the shops, a ladies boutique or something, and I was asked what I wanted to be when I grow up. I think you're supposed to say an ambulance man or a footballer or a soldier or something like that, and I told all my mother's friends that I wanted to be Minister for Health. She was mortified, needless to say.
- Family
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Mum is from West Waterford, Dungarvan. She's a farmer's daughter. She's a nurse. She left home very young - I think she was 18 - and went off to train as a nurse in England. My dad is from India, just south of Mumbai. He was one of the first in his family to go to college, and he went to England in the '70s; he emigrated there.
