Leo Varadkar ‘most conservative’, says Elaine Loughlin

Labour leader Brendan Howlin has attacked the Taoiseach, calling him the most conservative member of the last government.

Mr Howlin has also said it would be arrogant to rule out doing a deal with any party after the next general election, but wants to double the number of Labour seats in the Dáil.

He also called on Sinn Féin to take up its seats in Westminster, claiming it is is Ireland’s interest.
