Green Party TD Paul Gogarty's approach to politics is unconventional at the best of times.

Readers will remember he recently attracted attention by rolling around the floor and playing dead while a political rival was making a speech at a public meeting. But in the Dáil on Friday December 11th, he used what they call un-parliamentary language to make his feelings known. Video may be unsuitable for children.
