'We need to draw a line': FF TDs hit out at party negativity and criticise leaks to media

Junior Finance Minister Sean Fleming is to chair Fianna Fáil’s review into its disastrous General Election campaign in February, the parliamentary party has been told.

At the first meeting since the party’s support was at just 10% in a Red C poll in the Business Post, TDs and Senators hit out at the level of leaks to the media in recent weeks.
