An underwhelming housing plan will create another “unmerciful problem” in Fianna Fáil as tensions continue to simmer ahead of this evening’s parliamentary party meeting.

The review into the party’s beleaguered presidential election is not on the agenda for the meeting, despite expectations that it would be completed today.
