#Elections2019: TD's 'swing' controversy hurt FG at polls, Taoiseach says

Taoiseach Leo Varadkar admits that the controversy surrounding Fine Gael TD Maria Bailey and her injury claim after a fall from an “unsupervised” swing has damaged the party.

He said he will speak to her about the case in the coming days, amid calls both in and outside the party for Ms Bailey to outline the full details about the injury compensation claim against a hotel.
