Fianna Fáil: ‘We acknowledge the mistakes we’ve made’

Fianna Fáil’s giveaway manifesto, which was launched yesterday, is aimed at offering an alternative, according to party leader Micheál Martin.

He argued, with some passion, that the widely held belief that Fine Gael will lead the next government and that Enda Kenny will be taoiseach again is wrong.

He said he is a credible alternative, even if he sat at the cabinet table for the 14 years of Ireland’s boom and bust.
