Creighton denies she’s a ‘political tease’

Former minister Lucinda Creighton has insisted she is not a "political tease" after downplaying talk of setting up a new party.

The ex-Fine Gaeler turned Reform Alliance TD denied reports that she was recruiting for a new party, but insisted she did not want to be a “sole trader” on the political stage either.

“I am certainly not a tease. I’m not teasinganybody, I’m working and discussing with all sorts of people,” she told RTÉ.
