A Fine Gael meeting attended by the Taoiseach had to be suspended after protesters crashed it this evening.
Leo Varadkar and Simon Coveney are in Cork holding a town hall meeting about the plebiscite for a directly elected mayor there.
As it began a number of protesters from the Connolly Youth Movement interrupted to read statements about homelessness and other issues.
It led to anger from local Fine Gael members and the meeting was suspended.
