Taoiseach Micheál Martin has joked that weighing into the debate on Dublin’s live animal crib is “beyond his pay grade”.
The crib, which has been a Christmas staple outside the Mansion House on Dublin’s Dawson Street since the 1990s, has been cancelled by Green party Lord Mayor Caroline Conroy.
The move has been lambasted by Fine Gael, as well as the Irish Farmers Association (IFA).
