Leo is backing wrong horse in Donald Tusk

SHAME on Taoiseach Leo Varadkar for cosying up to self-serving Eurocrat Donald Tusk, adding injury to insult by laughing and agreeing with Mr Tusk’s outrageous remark that a special place in hell should be reserved for those who promoted Brexit without any plan.

How embarrassing for the Irish to stoop so low with their incessant stereotyping of Brexiteers. The British should be admired for standing up to the bureaucrats.

We have so much in common with the British people, who I have always found very courteous. There is hardly a family in Ireland that doesn’t know of someone benefiting from living and working in Britain.

Sovereignty and independence are important factors for a nation – an everintegrated united states of Europe with a European army encroaches on national identity. We are rapidly losing ours.
