Senior Fine Gael ministers have dismissed a suggestion from their leader Leo Varadkar that the party could enter a voting pact with Fianna Fáil and the Green Party.
In an interview last week, the Tánaiste suggested that while he expects Fine Gael to contest the next general election in 2025 as an independent party, his party could “seek to continue with the current partners” in Government.
He said that in a number of constituencies, both parties could have kept seats if a transfer agreement had been in place.
