Speaking in Brussels today, Leo Varadkar said the Government was looking at further options to ensure Covid rules were being followed

“But really what I would say to the industry you‘ve been closed for 600 days and we want you to stay open. The best way to do that is by making sure that you run a good house, and that means enforcing the Covid pass,” he said.“I’ve always been clear that I thought we’d have to get through at least another winter before we could say that the pandemic was safely behind us.

“The simplest thing is to tell people to stay at home, the second easiest is to go back to normal, the bit in between which is risk litigation and reducing is a bit more difficult and that’s a challenge we have.”He said he hoped to return to a nightclub this side of Christmas “if things improve”. “What I would say to people is that if they are going to a nightclub over the weekend, what I would say is that if you’re symptomatic, don’t,” he said.

He also said that gardaí should back the agencies involved in checking and monitoring the hospitality sector. He made the comments as new safety guidelines for nightclubs and live events are to be published today ahead of the reopening of nightclubs on Friday.

Maybe call a general election so we can have a government in power with some level of respect or credibility with the majority of the electorate. Cos this cabbage coalition has the same amount of respect as a steaming pile of manure at this stage.
