Varadkar 'waiting on the day I sit on toilet and someone says it's part of a leadership strategy'

Social Protection Minister Leo Varadkar has expressed his frustration at being constantly linked with the leadership of Fine Gael, writes Daniel McConnell, political editor.

Speaking this morning at an event at Dublin Castle, Mr Varadkar denied his plan to radically overhaul the social welfare system is part of his bid to succeed Taoiseach Enda Kenny, who will not lead the party into the next General Election.
