Convention row could see FF members withholding money from party

FIANNA Fáil members in Galway West could hit party headquarters where it hurts most — in the pocket — because of a row over a selection convention.

Local members are considering withholding money collected in a fundraiser in a bid to make headquarters reconvene the convention for the constituency.

The Fianna Fáil national collection is due to be taken next weekend and is an important party fundraiser.
