'It was a ball of flames': Leitrim TD describes how car was 'burnt to a shell' in attack

The Sinn Féin TD added that those "leading the charge" against the direct provision centre could have been more responsible with their rhetoric.

The Sinn Féin TD whose car was burned outside his home has said that he is determined to continue representing the people in his constituency.

Martin Kenny said he has been inundated with messages of support since the incident which happened as he was asleep in his Co. Leitrim home.
