Fine Gael's Justice Spokesman has said that he personally would not have a difficulty forming a government with Sinn Féin if the party had policies that would not cause problems.
Charlie Flanagan (left), who represents Laois/Offaly, told RTÉ's The Week in Politics programme, to be broadcast tonight, that at the moment he could not go along with Sinn Féin's opposition to the Lisbon Treaty and much of Gerry Adams' economic policies. Deputy Flanagan added that he did not know where all the 'hullabaloo' came from following Frank Flannery's recent comments, in which he held out the prospect of Fine Gael and Sinn Féin forming a government in the future.
Mr Flannery was last week demoted from this position as Fine Gael's Director of Elections.
