Tánaiste: TDs and election candidates need to be 'pulled up' on far-right comments

Politicians and election candidates need to be "pulled up" on far-right comments which incite hatred, the Tánaiste Simon Coveney has said.

Mr Coveney has told the Dáil that free speech is not the same as providing a free platform to spread whatever one thinks will gain political advantage or to bully or target someone.
