Kenny should ‘man up’ and save Childline

Ryan Tubridy has urged Taoiseach Enda Kenny to "man up" and "have the decency" to find the money to save the Childline 24-hour helpline for children in crisis.

The RTÉ star, who is also a longstanding Irish Society for Prevention of Cruelty to Children (ISPCC) ambassador, said it was “mildly sickening” that the helpline night service, which has received almost 40,000 calls so far this year faced closure.
