Leo Varadkar calls hoaxers who sent suspicious white powder to Health Minister Simon Harris as 'oddballs'
The cruel hoaxers who yesterday sent suspicious powder in an envelope to the Health Minister have been branded “oddballs”.
“I don’t know what sort of oddballs send suspicious packages in the post but they should be well aware it’s not the politicians who open the mail, it’s somebody doing a normal job. “Should members of the public encounter suspicious items, or potentially hazardous substances they are advised to maintain a safe distance and inform gardai.”“All resources are in place to resolve the incident. There is no danger to the public. Baggot Street Lower is still closed and we ask the public to respect the emergency cordons.”
It is believed a couple of workers who potentially came into contact with the suspicious substance had to be chemically cleaned as a precaution.How to follow the Irish Mirror on social media You can like our main Facebook page here.
