Taoiseach Micheal Martin breaks silence on Leo Varadkar attending UK music festival

The Taoiseach was speaking to reporters in Cork.

Taoiseach Micheรกl Martin has spoken out about Tanรกiste Leo Varadkar attending a music festival in the UK and has said he is โ€œentitledโ€ to his private time.

Mr Martin made the comments in Cork as Varadkar faces backlash from the live entertainment industry here which have described his attendance at a festival โ€œpoor judgementโ€ and โ€œbad taste.โ€

The Taoiseach would not say if he would have travelled to a gig given the pandemic is still ongoing.

He told reporters: โ€œI think what the Tanรกiste does in his private time is a matter for the Tanรกiste.

โ€œI donโ€™t intend to comment one way or the other in relation to that or to any other individual who has their private time to themselves.

โ€œI made my position clear on it.

In the spirit of taking it easy this week, list some bad habits you have

1 No matter how much milk is in the fridge, if we get a new carton I open it

2 I will literally drive the car down to last KM of diesel, rather than pump it myself

3 I am OCD about cleaning

The Government has drawn up plans for an October โ€œfirebreakโ€ Covid lockdown should hospitalisations continue at their current level and threaten to overload the NHS, a senior Government scientist has told i.

The member of the Governmentโ€™s Scientific Advisory Group for Emergencies (Sage) said the UK is about to enter โ€œan extended peakโ€ of infections and hospitalisations, which are in danger of pushing the NHS beyond breaking point and could force the Government to re-introduce restrictions over the school half term period at the end of next month.

A full lockdown is unlikely and would be a last resort, but there are a range of measures the government could introduce.
