Martin rules out causing general election in 2019
Fianna Fáil leader Micheál Martin has ruled out pulling the plug on the Government in the immediate aftermath of any Brexit breakthrough, saying it would be “reckless” to hold a vote before the end of the year.
Despite ongoing rumours of a snap election anytime between May and late summer, Mr Martin insisted he has given Taoiseach Leo Varadkar “the year” to work through the ongoing Brexit difficulties and will not change his position.
