The Dáil is in session today and it’s Pink Day in Leinster House. This has been suggested by Wicklow Labour TD Anne Ferris to Fine Gael’s Mary Mitchell O’Connor after the remarks overheard on Tuesday evening. Members of the house have been encouraged to wear pink, should be no problem for Mick Wallace. Donations will be encouraged to the Irish Cancer Society.

I hear that the press gallery will also be suitably attired. If you would like to donate you can do so here. And yes I have.
