Mitchell 'would accept' Commonwealth membership for a united Ireland
Fine Gael's Presidential candidate Gay Mitchell has said he would be "positively disposed" towards Ireland re-entering the Commonwealth, if it was the price for a united Ireland.
He made the remarks during a presidential debate on Today FM radio this evening.
Sinn Féin's Martin McGuinness said Mr Mitchell was accepting that the Queen of England would have precedence over the Irish President.
