Conal Thomas: There's no vacancy yet, but is the writing on the wall for Micheal Martin?
"Record homelessness and failed housing targets don't look good for the Taoiseach, and Jim O'Callaghan is impressing many in Fianna Fáil"
"For the fourth time in as many weeks Micheál Martin appeared on the airwaves last Thursday, defending his handling of Fianna Fáil's calamitous presidential campaign."
"Rumours have continued to swirl that a heave to end his 15 years at the helm of his party is imminent."
Record homelessness and missed housing targets have damaged the Taoiseach's standing. Jim O'Callaghan is gaining positive attention within Fianna Fáil. Micheál Martin has repeatedly appeared on air to defend his handling of the party's presidential campaign. The presidential campaign has been characterised as calamitous. Persistent rumours indicate a potential effort to remove him after 15 years leading the party. Frequent media appearances underline mounting pressure on his leadership. Internal party stability appears fragile as rival figures gain prominence and debate over leadership intensifies.
