Paternity leave drives O’Leary mad

Most women if given the choice would actually stop working when they have young children, according to straight-talking Ryanair boss Michael O’Leary.

Shooting from the hip as ever, the father of four let rip at political correctness and at the growing numbers campaigning for paid paternity leave.

Mr O’Leary said he is driven “mad” by the notion of paternity leave — “the idea that the father can now skip off for a few weeks”.
