Micheál Martin criticized individuals who claim to be pro-EU yet complain about Ireland losing sovereignty. The comments were made at the annual Fianna Fáil Wolfe Tone commemoration at Bodenstown, Co. Kildare. The remarks suggested that Catherine Connolly is 'not pro-EU'. The Taoiseach framed the point as a veiled attack on Presidential candidate Catherine Connolly. The criticism linked perceived contradictions between professed EU support and resistance to perceived sovereignty loss. The intervention occurred in a political commemorative setting and positioned EU allegiance and sovereignty concerns as central themes in current political debate.
