    Gormley also sent a letter, which focused on his record, and which, to me, felt a bit limp.

    That's all there is to it. It had nothing to do with the PFG.

    Wouldn't be expecting too many more either
    (obviously I am refering to the fact that we might prefer to maintain a certain distance from our erstwhile partners in government, rather than indicating any intention to pull out of government)
