Varadkar tells ‘oddballs’ not to target politicians’ families and staff

Taoiseach Leo Varadkar has warned “oddballs” who shut down the Department of Health after sending white powder to Simon Harris not to “come after” the staff and families of politicians by putting their safety at risk.

Mr Varadkar warned rogue protesters to back off in their attacks after the incident yesterday, saying: “If you want to come after us, come after us, but don’t come after our staff and our families.”
