Ryan Tubridy has told how he is ready to fly again after seeing the Leo Varadkar music festival controversy.
The Tanaiste has defended his decision to attend an event in the UK, stating he obeyed the regulations and restrictions that were in place.
And Tubs told listeners on his RTE Radio One show yesterday morning: “I think I’m ready to fly again. I’m not going to lie to you, when I saw Leo Varadkar at the festival, whether he goes or not is his business, he did nothing illegal.
“I thought, ‘That’s OK’, we’re all good to go, I’m not having a snark.
“The Tanaiste is flying, I’m ready to get going. Loads of people are doing it anyway. The airports are jammed.
“I really feel now that I’m pretty much ready to go and I’m considering packing a bag.”
However, he won’t be hitting a beach in Spain or Portugal just yet as he is too busy with the return of The Late Late Show on Friday nights.
Tubs added: “Now that The Late Late is back I have no time to go anywhere so I won’t be going anywhere, but in my head I was thinking, ‘I could do with a cold beer somewhere nice’.”
