The center-right party Fine Gael (FG), who won the last elections in the country and the Labour Party have agreed to form a new coalition government, as confirmed by the future prime minister, Enda Kenny. "I'm happy to say we have reached an agreement in which the finer details are being worked out," Kenny told reporters.
The deal puts an end to a negotiation process which began on Feb. 26, when the Conservative Party in the elections did not achieve enough votes to govern alone. Polls harshly punished Fianna Fáil, the party that had dominated Irish politics for eight decades and who had ruled in the past 14 years.
The new government represents the wishes of the Irish exchange, dealing with renewed energy to face an economic crisis that has led the country to accept the rescue of the European Union (EU) and the International Monetary Fund (IMF) and undertake a major restructuring of its economy. Enda Kenny, the next Prime Minister of Ireland, does not inspire confidence among citizens, who complain it is inexperience.
However, it has been able to capitalize on discontent with the ruling party and this was his greatest asset. The government's program with Kenny went to the elections is very similar to the outgoing Executive. It pledged to maintain the amount of the adjustment plan and also to accept the assumptions underlying the European rescue, but insisted on renegotiating your interest rate.
The difference is that seasoned their proposals with populist measures such as the abolition of the Senate, reducing the number of elected officials and the reduction of VAT to create jobs. Its natural partners are Labour's Eamon Gilmore. A party that combines the support abortion or gay marriage with far more conservative assumptions in economic affairs.
The alliance did not work between 1994 and 1997. But this time it may be easier: both parties have more harmony and less room to maneuver.
