In their own words

Ivana Bacik (Leader of the Labour Party; TD for Dublin Bay South) · Public services & political change

From what we have heard, Mr Harris' elevation will not deliver the change we need. That's why we in the Labour Party cannot support the Fine Gael nomination of Taoiseach.

Ivana Bacik (Leader of the Labour Party; TD for Dublin Bay South) · General election & housing reform

The appointment of another temporary Taoiseach by this coalition is just superficial change, not the radical change the people so badly need. That's why we have called for a general election now.
