If you don’t entertain using them under any circumstance, and think even reading about them legally compromise your ability to reimplement them yourselves, stop reading now\n\nIrish politics is refreshingly civilized by US or UK standards – so much so, in fact, that the otherwise-excellent Oireachtas votes page does not break down votes by party affiliation!\n\nThe raw data is actually there - which TD belongs to which party - and when the topic is contentious (like the recent vote to waive the three-day waiting period for abortion) - it does not help to know that some coalition ministers vote for it. How about the rest of the governing parties?",
