Gerry Adams admits mistake about next election leadership

Sinn Féin President Gerry Adams has admitted he “made a mistake” when he said he would resign as party leader ahead of the next general election.

The 67-year-old Louth TD was asked last Tuesday on radio if he expected to lead Sinn Féin into the next general election.

Mr Adams responded to Newstalk’s Jonathan Healy by saying that it all depended when the next election would be held.
