You can't allow people to blockade ports, you know.
You just can't allow that.
And again, you know,
If it makes me the Minister for Law and Order, well, I'm happy to be seen as the Minister for Law and Order.
That's more important than being popular.
I've no problem you asking me any questions, but I'm not here to answer for any of my wonderful sisters.
They're all women well able to speak for themselves.
I don't speak for them.
I've been very lucky to have such a wonderful family, but I'm not speaking for any of my wonderful sisters.
Well, I don't think it's absolutely necessary, to be honest with you, that you have an intimate understanding who I am.
And one thing that not irritates me, but I suppose concerns me about politics, it's become very folksy and sort of personal.
People want to know personal details about their politicians.
You know, I just do my job.
I'm a member of Dáil Éireann.
It took a long time to get elected.
It's a great privilege to be there.
I represent my constituents as best I can.
And in terms of fulfilling the job of Minister for Justice, you know, I get up every morning excited about the job I have to do and I enjoy it.
Like, who am I?
I'm a hard-working Fianna Fáil TD who has the privilege of being Minister for Justice.
