Healy-Rae blasts Taoiseach: 'The best he could do was celebrate the Black and Tans'

Kerry TD Michael Healy-Rae called on Micheál Martin “to grasp the nettle” and force a General Election, adding it should be the Fianna Fáil leader and the Rural Independent Group who put forward the motion of no-confidence in Health Minister Simon Harris.

Mr Healy-Rae compared the Government to a car with no brakes and four bald tyres rolling down a hill. “This Government’s race is finally ran.”
