McDowell focuses on ‘repairing damage’
Tánaiste and PD leader Michael McDowell ended his party’s 24-hour silence on the matter yesterday when he stated: “The Government is safe if the damage to the Government that has been done in recent times is repaired and that’s my focus.”
But there was a clear sense Mr McDowell was leaving enough leg-room for his party to change tack should further revelations emerge, hence the conditional nature of his commitment to the coalition.
