Peter Casey hits out at ‘out of touch’ Varadkar

Presidential candidate Peter Casey has hit out at Taoiseach Leo Varadkar for being “out of touch” with “ordinary people” and said he has “spent more time in India in the last three years” than the Taoiseach has.

Mr Casey gave two lengthy interviews on local radio in Cork where he again hit out at Mr Varadkar’s remarks on his comments about Travellers. Mr Casey also reiterated his view that Travellers are not a distinct and separate ethnic group.
