Fine Gael leader Simon Harris was approached during a canvass this evening by a woman who says she is a carer, and who said she believes the Government has "done nothing for us" | follow live:

When a struggling carer confronts you with some harsh truths and you realise it's being filmed:

You could hear the pain in her voice and he just didn’t want to listen. That’s the problem, @SimonHarrisTD will only really listen when someone is giving him a positive comment, he doesn’t want to hear it when you’ve issues you want addressed. I hope she’s doing ok and fair play to her ❤��

This is how real leaders listen to people, @SimonHarrisTD - shame on you for dismissing this women's concerns. #Ge24

Every interaction with public has been disastrous for Harris. The polls are wrong, this election is going to cause shockwaves.

.@Rte news @SimonHarrisTD, why can’t you just listen, not interrupt, show some humility instead of this excessive, constant hubris? #CarersRights #DisabilityRights #GE24 #VoteForChange

@camannua Literally car crash TV. She made a valid point, spoke the truth with raw emotion. He didn't listen, barely engaged and then dismissed her. Typifies the Gov's attitude towards our Carers. And yes, I can personally vouch that the Disability Sector is an absolute joke.

Stark difference there only waiting since may for the taoiseach to make good on his promise to met the @SBH_PAG and @scolionetwork. politics aside where is the human decency gone ? This is my son and I'm so proud of my boy speaking up everytime he gets the chance 💙

Tricky moment on the campaign trail but a well manoeuvred swift exit from Simon. This is exactly why we will be sticking to pre-recorded tick tock videos from here on in

He’s such a weasel. Only in it for himself. Doesn’t care about people.

I knew those eyes,body language,talking and running at speed would catch up with him eventually,car crash in slow motion and a week to go to the GE..🤷‍♂️
