“Hi Leo, from the Piglet,” came the text from former Minister Katherine Zappone to Tánaiste Leo Varadkar at 9.06pm on the evening of Friday, July 16.
The Piglet is a fashionable wine bar in Dublin’s Temple Bar, where the former Children’s Minister who had just arrived in from the US penned a text to her former Cabinet colleague and chum.
