During an interview on RTE's The Week In Politics, Ms McDonald said she had not considered stepping down. "I never considered that for a moment, absolutely not." Asked if that belief had never wavered 'even on the hardest day', she added: "Even on the hardest day - and some of the days were very hard - no. Because I know in my heart of hearts that quitting actually isn't an option."
Ms McDonald stated, "I carry this role mindful of its responsibility - and responsibilities can be onerous - but very proudly as the Uachtarain of Sinn Fein. I'm here for the long haul, I'm not a quitter... we'll be at it until we get to a position where Ireland is transformed to an equal and full republic - and, in time, a 32-county one at that."
