Jim Daly: Taoiseach won't reshuffle cabinet following #Elections2019 results

Minister Jim Daly does not believe Taoiseach Leo Varadkar will reshuffle his cabinet following the local election results and also said he doesn't feel Fianna Fail's strong showing could force an early general election.

The Minister with special responsibility for Mental Health and Older People was speaking at the count centre in Clonakilty, where three LEAs are being decided. Fianna Fail has topped the poll in two and Independent Danny Collins marched to victory in the other, although vote management by Fine Gael could mean it secures six seats out of the 15 available, despite a lower overall vote percentage.
