Ryan satisfied with approach to Leddin WhatsApp controversy

No sanction needed for Green TD over messages says party leader

 Minister for Transport Eamon Ryan doesn't believe in sanctioning party colleague for his WhatsApp messages.

Eamon Ryan says he agrees that no sanction should have been taken against one of his TDs who degraded an independent councillor.

Brian Leddin was not formally sanctioned by the Green Party Executive after WhatsApp messages appeared in which he called Elisa O'Donovan "unhinged" and saying she "craved fame".
