Will Fianna Fáil sue Jim Gavin?

#Taoiseach Micheál Martin tells #RTE: #JimGavin told #FiannaFail on 8th September that "he never had a journalist as a tenant". That was false.

If Jim had told the truth, the matter would have been investigated. Jim Gavin would not have been selected the next day.

The precise words used are critical. But if Jim's false assertion was given without caveat, that was #fraud which cost #FF ~€400K.

Wow! :O

Micheál Martin deserves big prizes both for arrogance and for idiocy. Everyone knows presidential elections are gruelling, that every potential candidate needs intensive scrutiny before endorsement.

Whatever else comes out in the #FiannaFail #Aras25 review, Micheál's colleagues know they are looking at a leader whose political judgement is as useless as #JimGavin's. Micheál may hang on another year, but the #FF leadership election starts here.

#FF's #Aras25 review seems to have concluded that it was all the fault of the politically clueless #JimGavin that the #FiannaFail leadership bullied the Fianna Fáil parliamentary party to adopt a politically clueless candidate for the presidency. 🙄

Glad we cleared that up. 😂🤣

Great reporting by Mícheál Lehane and others at https://www.rte.ie/news/politics/2025/1216/1549211-fianna-fail-review/

3 veteran #FiannaFail TDs said the #FF party's #Aras25 review should be published “immediately”.

TDs Willie O’Dea, former Ceann Comhairle Seán Ó Fearghaíl, and Pat ‘The Cope’ Gallagher signed a statement insisting that the party and Martin move swiftly and publish the long-awaited review, stating that the constant leaks and coverage of the report is damaging.

The inquiry started 2.346 #JimGavins ago. (1 #JimGavin = 26 days)

2.346 #JimGavins have elapsed since #FiannaFail started its inquiry into its #Aras25 presidential election disaster. Now #FF is struggling to keep a lid on rumours that the report blames both #JackChambers and Micheál Martin's chief of staff for covering up #JimGavin's dirty secret of ripping off a tenant.

Fianna Fáil is openly bickering about its unpublished (possibly unfinished) report into #JimGavin's disastrous #Aras25 presidential election.

I dunno if the leaks/allegations are accurate. But after 5 months, #FiannaFail still can't sort this. It's a spectacular failure of party organisation.

2.308 #JimGavins have elapsed since #FF established this inquiry. The idea was to learn from events, and move on. Instead, it's spiralling downwards.
