Peter Casey offered Renua leadership after FF rejection

Presidential election runner-up Peter Casey’s audacious threat to set up a “new Fianna Fáil” if Micheál Martin blocks him from joining the party has led to Renua Ireland’s leader saying he “will not stand in the way” of him taking over his party.

Renua told the Irish Examiner of the offer to Mr Casey after the businessman’s demand to join Fianna Fáil was definitively rejected by TDs.
