Bad vibes over FG video on jet
OPPOSITION TDs have criticised Taoiseach Leo Varadkar’s decision to post a video message to Fine Gael supporters from the Government jet.
Fianna Fáil spokesman Timmy Dooley said: ‘If he wants to communicate with Fine Gael members he should do so outside of his Government business.’ Government press secretary Nick Miller recorded the film message. He was travelling on the jet in his capacity as adviser to the Taoiseach.
It’s an unwritten convention that Government facilities are not used for party political purposes.
