Ireland’s prime minister, Simon Harris, has said he is “angry and annoyed” at the “inexcusable” €336,000 cost for a bike shelter at Leinster House in Dublin, the seat of the Irish parliament.
The taoiseach told a news conference that people could see the benefit of having somewhere to park a bike at a workplace but what they did not get was “the extraordinary sum of money” the shelter cost, and neither did he.
