General Practitioner Contract: Statements
Dail Éireann — 2020-11-03
============================================================

Leo Varadkar (FG), Dublin West

The answer to the Deputy's question is "Yes". He is over-egging it. That is clearly a big part of this story. Someone who is known to me, who is a friend but not a close friend, made out to various people that he was closer to me than he was and that he had special access. That is a big part of what this is about. I am not trying to make out that I am some sort of victim. That is simply the fact.
