Reports suggest SF TD may join rivals

A Sinn Féin TD has dismissed reports that he could be about to join Fianna Fáil.

Reports this morning have linked Peadar Toibin with a surprise move to Fianna Fáil ahead of the next general election.

The Meath East TD is currently serving a six-month suspension from Sinn Féin after voting against party policy on abortion.

However, he said he is committed to Sinn Féin and won't be leaving to join their bitter rivals.
