Fianna Fáil prepare for general election in September

Fianna Fáil are preparing for an election as early as September, with the party convinced Taoiseach Leo Varadkar is “gunning” to go to the polls.

Micheál Martin and his party believe an election could be called before the budget and that Fine Gael would use Eighth Amendment legislation to try to damage Fianna Fáil during the campaign.
