Social Democrats will not be third leg of Government table with Fine Gael and Fianna Fáil

The Social Democrats said the party has seen no indications that Fianna Fáil and Fine Gael would not plunge the country into austerity to deal with the post-Covid-19 recession.
Co-leader Róisín Shortall seemed to rule out becoming the “third leg of the table” in government formation, due to her concerns over how the Civil War parties plan to deal with the oncoming economic crisis.
