Micheál Martin quiet on claims Bertie Ahern has been asked to rejoin party

A spokesperson for Mr Martin, the party itself, and senior frontbenchers Michael McGrath and Barry Cowen either failed to respond or declined to comment on the issue yesterday as opposition parties hit out at the potential move.
On Tuesday night, the Dublin Central branch of Fianna Fáil voted “unanimously” to formally ask Mr Ahern to return as a member.
