Independents 'likely' to form 'tried and tested' alliance with Fianna Fáil in Cork County Council

The Independents look likely to form an alliance with Fianna Fáil to take control of Cork County Council when newly elected councillors meet for the first time on June 7.

Horsetrading is likely to get underway by the end of this week and that alliance looks the most likely outcome unless Fine Gael comes up with a surprise.
