Fianna Fáil TDs rule out snap election during 'period of deep uncertainty'

Two senior Fianna Fáil TDs have ruled out any snap election until Brexit is over, saying it would be wrong to force a national vote while the "period of deep uncertainty" remains.

Fianna Fáil finance spokesperson Michael McGrath and public expenditure spokesperson Barry Cowen rejected snap election talk as they separately hit out at Fine Gael political tricks that amount to opponents living in the "Republic of Narnia".
