A politician says he won’t apologise for calling for “checks and balances” on refugees fleeing the Taliban, and has hit out at those criticising him, calling them “snowflakes”.
Independent Cork City councillor Ken O’Flynn said he stood over his comments after being criticised on Tuesday for using an old photograph of a plane full of Afghan men which he described as a “flight coming in from Afghanistan” to support his calls.
