Fine Gael holding Ard Fheis in Ballyconnell next month

Fine Gael is to hold its Ard Fhéis in Ballyconnell next month.

Thousands of party members are expected to attend the event in the Slieve Russell hotel on November 10th and 11th.

It’s expected that Brexit and the Eighth Amendment will be on the long list of topics for discussion, with Leo Varadkar delivering the keynote speech on the Saturday evening.

Fine Gael will be hoping to send two TDs to Leinster House from the local area after the next election.

The party lost a seat last year, with Cavan-Monaghan dropping to a four seat constituency.
