Catherine Connolly said she was 'absolutely shocked' by comments from former minister Ivan Yates suggesting Fine Gael should 'smear the bejaysus out of her'. Connolly was canvassing with her team in Co Tipperary when she heard the remarks played back to her on local radio, and said she was 'doubly shocked'. The remarks originated on a podcast featuring Yates. Minister Heather Humphreys stated she is 'not involved in any smear campaign'. The incident highlights concerns about targeted political attacks and the amplification of provocative statements through media channels.
