Mícheál Martin will definitely not put himself forward for the presidential election despite a clamour from Fianna Fáil TDs who believe he would 'walk it'.

The source emphasized that Martin remains focused on his role as Taoiseach and sees no reason to change his position. Fianna Fáil TDs continue to express confidence in Martin's electoral appeal, but Martin's stance remains unchanged and he will not seek the presidency.
