Taoiseach Enda Kenny has said that he won’t step down as Fine Gael leader, despite taking a hammering at the General Election.
Mr. Kenny has said that he fully intends to remain as party leader, saying “My position as Taoiseach and head of Government. I have a duty and responsibility to work with the decision the people have made to provide the country with a stable Government. That I intend to do fully and completely.”
“I want to wait and see what the eventual final outcome will be and then look at all the options that are open to me as Taoiseach and head of Government. I need to call my colleagues, my parliamentary colleagues together and talk about a number of issues here,” he said.
