Travellers accuse Sinn Féin TD of racist abuse
They are alleging that Mr Ferris referred to them as “dirty, smelly Pavees”.
But Mr Ferris yesterday strongly denied making racist and abusive remarks to the Travellers in his Kerry North constituency. Gardaí are investigating a noisy incident which is understood to have taken place on Thursday last in the Mitchels Crescent area of Tralee, where a large number of settled Travellers live.
