Taoiseach: Entire country stands with LGBTQIA community following 'barbaric' Sligo killings

The Taoiseach said that the Government will do all it can to stamp out hate-motivated crimes and said that legislation will be brought by Justice Minister Helen McEntee.

The entire country stands with the LGBTQIA community, the Taoiseach says.

The Taoiseach was speaking as vigils were planned across the country in the wake of the killings of Aidan Moffitt on Monday and Michael Snee on Tuesday night in Sligo.
