Fine Gael recruits ‘politically promiscuous’ Keating

THE Green party accused Fine Gael of “desperation” in recruiting a councillor who has previously been a member of both Fianna Fáil and the PDs.

Fine Gael leader Enda Kenny yesterday unveiled independent councillor Derek Keating as the latest addition to the party.

Mr Keating sits on South Dublin County Council, and ran unsuccessfully as an independent candidate in last year’s general election in Dublin Mid-West.
