Integration Minister Roderic O'Gorman does not want to see far-right candidates who make "exaggerated" and "crazy" statements elected next week.

Mr O'Gorman has hit out at candidates on the far-right who are contesting both the local and European elections, saying they have "no answers" and are often not involved in the communities they are seeking to represent.
