Road Haulage Association defends Verona Murphy as someone who 'strives to avoid division'

The Road Haulage Association has strongly defended Fine Gael's by-election candidate Verona Murphy dubbing her someone who strives to avoid division and seeks to bring people together.
Ms Murphy, who is standing in the Wexford constituency, has been embroiled in controversy over remarks she made about asylum seekers. It has also emerged that Ms Murphy was named in an alleged bullying case in her role as head of the Road Haulage Association.
