Ready, Steady, Wait: Fianna Fáil, Brexit and The Next Election
Published 7 years ago
Description
At the Fianna Fáil ardfheis in City West, everyone, from the regular delegates on up to the party leader Micheál Martin, wants to take the fight to Fine Gael in a general election. But not right now, of course. As all are at pains to point out, the party must hold off in the national interest. Harry McGee and Pat Leahy were there to assess the party mood.

After that, Pat and Harry analyse the speech delivered on Saturday evening by Micheál Martin.
