Micheál Martin faces an internal Fianna Fáil leadership dilemma centring on the potential return of a former taoiseach. Party members express a clear binary preference: they either want Martin to stand as leader or to make way for Bertie Ahern. A Fianna Fáil TD characterises that stance as the consensus across all party levels. The choice places pressure on Martin to run himself or yield the contest. The decision will affect Fianna Fáil’s leadership lineup and internal unity ahead of forthcoming political contests and public scrutiny.
