Taoiseach Leo Varadkar has said that he “hopes” there are no protests at new accommodation centres for asylum seekers as he stated that “disinformation” must be tackled.
However, both the Fine Gael leader and Junior Integration Minister Joe O’Brien would not be drawn on what form a new long-delayed communications campaign will take.
Mr Varadkar once again called for a blockade in Inch, Co Clare, to be stood down as groups continued to picket accommodation being provided for asylum seekers. The blockade has been in place since Monday evening.
