Sinn Féin’s Mary Lou McDonald has said she’s ‘scarlet’ for Micheál Martin

Mary Lou McDonald is not one to mince her words.

The Sinn Féin Ard Fheis is underway at Dublin's Convention Centre, and the party are convening to talk about the state of the political landscape. As McDonald spoke, the topic soon turned to the alleged theft of Sinn Féin policy by Fianna Fáil, and Mary Lou summed it up in the most Dublin way possible.

“Michéal Martin, as Dubs would say, we’re scarlet for you”

Fianna Fáil's pledge to 'scrap' Irish Water was "Sinn Fein-lite", says Mary Lou. "We Sinn Feiners are only scarlet from the tribute" #sfaf16
