Fianna Fáil leader Micheál Martin has insisted the next general election will remain “completely open” and once again refused to comment on the possibility of a future coalition with Sinn Féin.
Martin said there was a “false premise” behind the question of whether his party would agree to a coalition with Sinn Féin, reports Breaking News.
He said Fianna Fáil and Sinn Féin disagreed on many policy issues and suggested they were not “serious” enough to play a role in government.
The Tánaiste also expressed scepticism that opinion polls continue to give Sinn Féin a significant lead over Fianna Fáil and Fine Gael ahead of the next general election.
Speaking at the Fianna Fáil ard fheis party in Dublin on Saturday, Martin stressed that the electoral situation was “dynamic” and answered questions about the prospects of a future government deal with Sinn Féin.
