Taoiseach Leo Varadkar has said that he has the support of his parliamentary party after a number of reports suggesting he had lost the Fine Gael dressing room.
Both Enterprise Minister Simon Coveney and Higher Education Minister Simon Harris backed the Taoiseach, saying that there is “no leadership issue” in Fine Gael.
Three Sunday newspapers ran articles over the weekend suggesting that Mr Varadkar’s leadership was on the brink.
