I hope he had a quick chat with George Lee first.

Is the allowance to independent senators going? Where does he expect to run for a Dail seat? Or does he endorse FG's values? Or just want to have influence in the only parliamentary party which matters? Does he have a view about FG public reps being named as tax defaulters like Cllr Clendennen in Offaly who has not yet been disciplined by the party? Offaly FG Cllr on Tax Defaulters list for €125k

From Chairman of the Boards to chairman of some meaningless committee.

Odds on him eventually coming 4th in a 3 seater?

[gijoe]

I would imagine it is Dublin South Central and a 2nd seat there that they are targeting him for.

[statsman]

So, you reckon he'll be running for them?

[Someone had to say it; why not me?]

[Mentalist Clientelist]

Is this a running joke?

You've been lapped by me; I've already made two running related contributions.

Enda is reacting to criticism that he can't "run" the country.
