Taoiseach: Kenny ‘not able’ to assess evidence

TAOISEACH Brian Cowen has launched another attack on Enda Kenny after the Fine Gael leader criticised the Government’s banking and employment strategies.

In 2008, when defending the then Taoiseach Bertie Ahern, Mr Cowen told Mr Kenny he was “neither qualified nor able” to assess the evidence being heard at the Mahon Tribunal.

In the Dáil yesterday, Mr Cowen adopted a similar tactic as he suggested Mr Kenny was “even more foolish” than the Taoiseach had previously believed.
