Mr Martin was the target of criticism a number of times at Fine Gael's party conference over the weekend.

Minister Varadkar says there would be no point in a TV debate between the Taoiseach and Fianna Fáil leader.

He said: "I don't really think there is a point, you know Fianna Fáil is a third party.

"It was a third party in the last General Election, it'll almost certainly be the third party in the next, and it is in the polls at the moment.

"So, I don’t see why Enda Kenny would go head-to-head with the leader of a third party."
