Minister for Children said to be ‘shaken’ by the alleged incident which occurred while going door-to-door in Dublin

Dilemma about how Fine Gael and Fianna Fáil are going to manage being partners and rivals remains unresolvedMr O’Gorman told The Irish Times: “On Saturday, while out canvassing in Dublin West, what was otherwise a positive canvass was marred by an alarming incident with one individual.

Taoiseach Simon Harris described the incident as “absolutely unacceptable” and said what happened “cannot be tolerated or accepted in a modern democracy. I am so glad to hear he is ok and back out canvassing. He added: “The safety of all politicians and all their canvassers is paramount in the forthcoming election.”A Garda spokesman said: “A man in his 30s, arrested by gardaí following the alleged assault of an elected representative canvassing in his local community in Dublin on Saturday, 2nd November 2024, has been charged.
