Kenny refuses Martin invite for three-way TV debate

Fine Gael leader Enda Kenny has ruled out taking part in a three-way televised debate with the leaders of Fianna Fáil and Labour.

Enda Kenny has said he will only participate in a debate that involves all five party leaders.

It comes after Micheál Martin, the newly elected leader of Fianna Fáil, challenged Enda Kenny and Eamon Gilmore to a series of debates on RTE, TV3 and TG4 during the General Election.

However Mr Kenny said he does not believe any party leaders should be excluded from taking part in the debate.
