McDowell challenged on Rainbow option

PD leader Michael McDowell recently declared his party would not join or support a government as “unstable or incoherent” as one involving Fine Gael, Labour and the Greens, saying he believed a second election would be preferable to the establishment of a non-viable Rainbow government.

I would like to ask Mr McDowell three questions:

1. Are we to understand that if the PDs joining such a government were the only solution to not having Sinn Féin in power, would he stand aside and let possible former terrorists into government?
