He won't be happy with this being covered in UK with Brexit looming.

Covered in Belfast Telegraph also.

I imagine they know they have Varadkar and are looking for more.

Direct Provision has yet to be mentioned. Contracts awarded will have to be checked.

I don't think his supporters on Media today will look good tomorrow including Martin.

I think Martin was too strong in defence of him today. Varadkar would not have been kind if the roles were reversed.

Has something happened? Has anyone checked if he's ok?

He’s binge watching the lord of the rings to see is there any insightful little story in there,that could be used by a sneaky gombeen to explain his incompetent and inappropriate behavior.

What time is he taking to the floor?

I hear opposition are only getting 10 mins each to speak.

Crucify him. Crucify him. The new mantra of modern day civilization.

After all his attacks on diff people over the years, most recently Dr Tony, he deserves everything that comes his way.

Worst FG leader ever?

He's busy watching Dirty Dancing and My Best Friend's Wedding over and over for a juicy quote to spruce up his defence tomorrow.

The jaded party line "not best practice" hasn't sold over except the most gullible and ignorant.

Yes that was nasty but also hasty. Holohan was proved right after and then when the new restrictions were being introduced 2-3 weeks later Varadkar tried to claim credit .

What really showed his character in my opinion but he was not vilified for was when he threw a party for himself and friends at Farmleigh House in The Phoenix Park and said in defence "people have to live their lives".

It was a month after multiple deaths in the Nursing Home a mile or so away from Farmleigh.

You would have to imagine that Pascal and Simon Coveney are looking at this like , let him self implode and we will get the top job.
If Michael Martin had any spine he would be sticking the knife in, Leo certainly would.

I have a feeling much more is going to come out, lots of politicians and main stream media are not saying much as the like of RTE need to be drip fed information from politicians to remain relevant.

Anyone know what time the address is on?

Sitting in his pyjamas for the past 3 days watching A Christmas carol screaming over and over again ''why don't you get a f+cking job Tiny Tim'', tears streaming down his face.

Or not giving a f+ck as per usual...

He had to wait until he had a trendy phrase to use.

"Circuit breaker"

LEO is not a nice guy, let us not forget this nugget:

Fine Gael enterprise spokesman Leo Varadkar, at a meeting of the Oireachtas enterprise committee with FAS, the Irish National Organisation of the Unemployed and Enterprise Ireland.

His proposal centred on the idea that six months of social welfare benefits be paid to foreign national workers prepared to return to their country of origin. Such workers cost the State €400m every year in dole payments, according to Mr Varadkar. But Fianna Fail's Thomas Byrne labelled the proposal as a "new low in Irish politics".

Very brazen, how can someone be that stupid??

I don't think was a mistake at all, Leo does and says what he likes (albeit most of his communications done via unnamed sources and.cynical leaks) this there is little disputing and besides it was more a favour than mistake.

"The NAGP, which was not involved in direct negotiations with the Government on the new deal for general practice, said many GPs were waiting to see the details of the new offer before they renewed their membership subscription.

“This has created financial difficulties for the NAGP."

April 29th. The nothing to gain storyline is now gone.

Indo running with a story just now that the NAGP threatened FG with running candidates against their councillors and senators if they weren't included in the IMO talks in 2019.
