There’s been complaints in the Dáil after two TDs wore black jumpers calling for the repeal of the 8th Amendment.

The Dáil’s TV feed deliberately cut to another camera to cover the ‘REPEAL’ slogan on jumpers worn by Paul Murphy and Richard Boyd Barrett.

The jumpers coincide with a ‘Strike 4 Repeal’ which has seen thousands of demonstrators demanding the repeal of the 8th Amendment.
