Ireland must stand up for all immigrants, Boston mayor tells Enda Kenny

Boston mayor Marty Walsh has warned Taoiseach Enda Kenny he will not support any deal that only saves illegal Irish people from Donald Trump's immigration clampdown, insisting Ireland must stand up for all immigrants during Thursday's White House visit.

Speaking alongside Mr Kenny at a joint press conference in Boston's City Hall during which the Taoiseach said "it's not just about the Irish", Mr Walsh said while he is a "proud" Irish-American he cannot support anything that would "just benefit one country".
