Varadkar: I'm happy Verona Murphy didn't get elected
Taoiseach Leo Varadkar has said he is glad former Fine Gael candidate Verona Murphy did not get elected and that her remarks about migrants and possible terrorist attacks here feed into racist views.
Hitting back at the failed Wexford by-election candidate and her criticism of Fine Gael this week, Mr Varadkar admitted it was a "mistake" selecting Ms Murphy to run for his party in the first place.
