IRELAND – Jim Gavin, Fianna Fail’s candidate in Irish presidential race, quits contest after admitting ‘mistake’
His departure from the race poses questions for his main backers in Fianna Fail, including the party leader and Irish Prime Minister Micheál Martin.
Mr Gavin, 54, faced repeated questioning during a televised debate and subsequent media interest about claims he owed a former tenant €3,000 (£2,600) in overpaid rent dating back 16 years.
His departure from the race poses questions for his main backers in Fianna Fail, including the party leader and Irish Prime Minister Micheál Martin, who had some pushback within the party for driving Mr Gavin’s candidacy.
