The U.K. and Ireland are like-minded on E.U. matters, and the process of working together in Brussels has built an immense store of knowledge, personal relationships, and trust between our governments.
Quote by -Enda Kenny
The E.U. needs renewal, and we need a strong U.K. at the table to help to drive the reform agenda that can help the union regain competitiveness and growth.
Quote by -Enda Kenny
My genuine belief is that if we can get through the eurozone crisis from a political point of view, we've got a lot of engines that can drive our economy, that will restore confidence and get us moving on.
Quote by -Enda Kenny
Public confidence in, and support for, the euro - and, indeed, the European Union - will ultimately be determined by how well we deliver on growth and jobs rather than on institutional wrangling and complex legal or technical negotiations.
Quote by -Enda Kenny
We must ensure that more binding, durable, and enforceable fiscal rules go hand-in-hand with funding certainty for countries pursuing sound and sustainable economic policies. We need to keep pushing forward towards a comprehensive solution to the challenges of the eurozone.
Quote by -Enda Kenny
We need to work together towards a mutually beneficial solution for Ireland, the U.K., and for Europe.
Quote by -Enda Kenny
As leader of the Fine Gael Party, I will also use our position in the European People's Party to clearly state our views with our European political partners.
Quote by -Enda Kenny
Our priority will be to look after the interests of our own country and its citizens.
Quote by -Enda Kenny
Down the country, people in rural areas are struggling to get a speed of even 1 MB, not much better than the old dial-up system we used to have when the system was in relative infancy.
Quote by -Enda Kenny
The revelations of the Cloyne report have brought the government, Irish Catholics, and the Vatican to an unprecedented juncture.
Quote by -Enda Kenny
People understand that you have to do difficult things to sort out our own public finances.
Quote by -Enda Kenny
People tell me their own stories about how they have come through great difficulty.
Quote by -Enda Kenny
Irish research will contribute to global progress and have the potential to help all countries realise the potential of their land sectors in addressing climate change - this means reducing emissions, adapting to impacts, and enhancing and improving carbon sinks.
Quote by -Enda Kenny
By far, the greatest contribution Ireland can make is to lead by example, by actively pursuing its own transition to a sustainable, low-carbon economy.
Quote by -Enda Kenny
I am proud that Ireland is playing its part to drive an ambitious and comprehensive agreement at COP21.
Quote by -Enda Kenny
Failure to curb temperature increases will impact all countries, Ireland included, but with the most immediate and drastic effects being felt, in many instances, by the most vulnerable countries and communities.
Quote by -Enda Kenny
The Seanad question was one element of a process of change and reform to politics that government has been pursuing.
Quote by -Enda Kenny
Populist promises to reverse every tough decision are nothing but empty rhetoric, irresponsible leadership, and bad politics. They are not the solution to Ireland's problems.
Quote by -Enda Kenny
To me, the real opinion polls are the tangible facts: the growing creation of jobs, the number of planning permissions, the number of commercial vans being sold - the signs that the Irish people are regaining confidence.
Quote by -Enda Kenny
We'll look after the people who create jobs and business and give them that opportunity to grow in the time ahead.
Quote by -Enda Kenny
We'll look after our hospitals. We'll look after our schools. We'll look after our infrastructure.
Quote by -Enda Kenny
I now know what to do; I know how decisions can be made. I know how you can drive ministers and their departments to actually make decisions and bring results.
Quote by -Enda Kenny
By 2007, an uncompetitive, bloated, over-borrowed and distorted Irish economy had been left at the mercy of subsequent international events without the safeguards, institutions, and mindset needed to survive and prosper as a small open economy inside the euro area.
Quote by -Enda Kenny
In Ireland here, the Revenue Commission have always been completely independent of the state since 1923, and they are quite adamant and quite clear that there was no preferential treatment and no special deals, no sweetheart deals, and that Apple paid the taxes that were due on their profits generated here in this country.
Quote by -Enda Kenny
My job starts at a quarter to seven in the morning, and you go right through until whatever time is necessary to finish up.
Quote by -Enda Kenny
There will be no hard border from Dundalk to Derry in the context of it being a European border, and by that I mean customs posts every mile along the road.
Quote by -Enda Kenny
I don't like to see people on trolleys in hospitals; I don't like to see old people sitting in chairs for hours.
Quote by -Enda Kenny
I just think that the older you get, the more you appreciate the responsibility of politics.
Quote by -Enda Kenny
If you were to do it again, you'd probably do some things differently. But the decision is right to have a single entity manage the water and the waste water for a country.
Quote by -Enda Kenny
We've got enormous potential, phenomenal potential on our doorstep, which requires politics that makes that work, and that's what we try to show here in Ireland: that while there's a lot of pain, the reward at the end of this is career opportunities, prosperity, and brighter days for everybody.
Quote by -Enda Kenny
I think 'austerity' is a much abused word. I prefer to call it 'fiscal discipline' or financial, 'financial competency.'
Quote by -Enda Kenny
Under no circumstances will I allow the Fianna Fail party back into government. They wrecked the economy twice.
