Fine Gael create first spokesman on Dublin

TAKE it from the horse’s mouth: solving Dublin’s problems is no easy task.

Senator Brian Hayes, will focus on the capital’s traffic.

As Fine Gael leader Enda Kenny cruised along St Stephen’s Green at nine miles per hour, led by a horse called Charlie and a driver called Michael Collins, Senator Hayes seemed to have all the answers to the capital’s problems. Unveiling the party’s new voice for the capital, Mr Kenny said the appointment came on foot of an internal party report which highlighted the lack of any government figure tasked with looking after Dublin’s interests.
