Solidarity-PBP claim Sinn Féin 'lurching to the right' and rule out coalition

Solidarity-People Before Profit has ruled out any potential future deal with Sinn Féin unless Gerry Adams's party scraps the possibility of forming a government with Fine Gael or Fianna Fáil, writes Irish Examiner Political Correspondent Fiachra Ó Cionnaith.

The six-TD strong political group outlined the position at its pre-Dáil think-in on Wednesday, claiming Sinn Féin is lurching to the right and risks becoming a "mudguard" similar to Labour in power unless it rules out any coalition with "establishment" parties.
