Fianna Fail deputy says departure of Pat McKee is regrettable

John McGuinness says its ‘regrettable’ that Patrick McKee has opted to leave Fianna Fail.

The Kilkenny Councillor was unveiled yesterday as the Renua candidate for the Carlow Kilkenny by-election.

The 26 year old was critical of the Fianna Fail hierarchy and said he wasnt prepared to sit on the sideline.

John McGuinness says the party needs young people and says they should be listened to.
