'I'm doing my very best to get on with my job' - Tanaiste on going through a 'rotten time' due to threats to him and his family

"Tánaiste Simon Harris has said the "sustained, relentless nature" of threats targeting his children and family must be called out and not "glossed over"."

"The Foreign Affairs Minister spoke after calls claiming there was a bomb at his family home were made to three garda stations last weekend, just days after separate threats were made online against his children and a close relative."

Calls claiming there was a bomb at his family home were made to three garda stations last weekend. Those calls came just days after separate online threats targeted his children and a close relative. The incidents together indicate a pattern of targeted intimidation against his family. The Gardaí were alerted and the cases have raised concern about the safety of his children and relatives and the need for a firm public response.
