The claim

Aontu and its leader Peadar Toibin shared an image purporting to show a Fine Gael poster with Taoiseach Simon Harris’s face which reads “More Waste. Note, it wasn’t me.”

Rating

This is a doctored image, the poster does not appear to be real. An identical photograph, but with a different caption on the poster, has been online for several months. Aontu told the PA news agency that it is “not a real poster”.
