Showbiz Editor TV star Baz Ashmawy has hit out at angry protestors who "followed" and "attacked" him for building homes for Ukrainian refugees.

The show's recent Christmas special which featured constructing houses for those displaced by Russia's invasion enraged some viewers who accused the presenter of "not putting the Irish first".

Baz revealed he was followed by protestors and was attacked by a minority of people.

He continued: "I had people following me to Kinsale on my night off.

"I got out of the car, and they started attacking me and I was thinking, "The energy these people are putting into chasing me and not doing anything to help people'.
