MICHAELMcDowell's admission last Friday that it doesn't matter whether Bertie Ahern or Enda Kenny leads the next government places the PD minister in an interesting position vis-a-vis Jack O'Connor, the president of Siptu.
O'Connor told a Labour party meeting last year that when it comes to coalition options most union members "would prefer to deal with Fianna Fail under Bertie Ahern than with Enda Kenny. . ."
It really all makes for bizarre politics when O'Connor . . . whose party wants to make Kenny Taoiseach . . . expresses a preference for Ahern but the justice minister, who sits at cabinet with Ahern, is neutral on Kenny becoming head of government.
