    Leo the Narcissist

    Is there no limit to Leo Varadkar's vanity? His department has spent €6,400 on PR shots in nine months. Small wonder he was all over the weekend papers.

    The Dublin West TD racked up a bill of €393 on June 11 posing for what was described as a "profile of minister Varadkar", according to the documents released under the Freedom of Information Act.

    And just one photographer was hired to shoot the 'profile', despite the tidy sum. A further €530 was spent on taking photographs on the day the Government announced it was to shelve a number of key transport projects, such as Metro North.

    And a further €531 was forked out on photographing during an event entitled 'Welcoming the Irish Cricket Team' at Farmleigh in Dublin.

    No excuse for this, is there?

    Even if the €6,400 was not all on his own lovely face, it is still a load of bollox.

    FG should reimburse the taxpayer.

    I wonder what hiding behind a poster contribution to this thread will be?

    Maybe:
