Taoiseach Says He's Confident Fine Gael Conducted Itself Properly In Deselection Of Maria Bailey

The swing-gate TD claims to have serious concerns about the procedures carried out

At a meeting last month party members called for the election ticket to be changed.

After she was formally dropped by Fine Gael last night, Deputy Bailey said she had hoped to rebuild her reputation and move on. 

Leo Varadkar says it was a democratic decision by the party but he does empathise with her.
