Update 10.20am: Speaking on RTE's Sean O'Rourke show, John O'Connor of the Munster Express said a story in the newspaper that said Theresa May had bought a holiday home in Dunmore East, was a late April Fool's joke. He said this was valid, even though the story did not run on April Fool's Day, Monday. Earlier: Downing Street denies Theresa May has bought a house in Dunmore EastTheresa May's office has denied that she has purchased a holiday home in Dunmore East. A report in the Munster Express claimed that Mrs May had purchased a house in the popular fishing village. It comes as the British Chancellor Philip Hammond said a referendum on any Brexit deal was a “perfectly credible” proposal.
