Varadkar puts FineGael on election footing

FF may support/abstain on a no-confidence motion in the Housing Minister which may make Leo Varadkar pull the trigger

Wasn't quite my point, but yes.

What I was getting at was they there could be value for FG in an election that could see the end of Martin - not sure they failing to be taoiseach three times in a row would sit well with FF members. He walks and there's limited replacement options and most of them would be toxic to their floating vote

Agreed. I think FF are better off with Martin than without. He's damaged goods, but so is the party, however they need a familiar face none-the-less. He's rode the welcoming, let bygones be bygones Fine Gael wave this far. It'll be interesting to see FG take pot shots at him and FF after being so cosy. It would require less FG brass neck to poke at a new FF leader. All Martin has to retort is, 'we were good enough for ye' anytime Leo throws a dig.
