Lucinda Creighton is launching her new party on Friday the 13th

That’s today…

Updated 13 March, 7am

FORMER FINE GAEL minister Lucinda Creighton will formally launch her new political party this morning.

In a brief statement yesterday afternoon, Creighton said that she will formally launch the new party, as well as unveiling a group of declared candidates for the next general election, at 10am in central Dublin.

The Dublin South-East TD launched the Reboot Ireland project alongside financial advisor Eddie Hobbs at the beginning of January.

She and Hobbs have since undertaken a tour of the country, holding a series of meetings and recruiting party members.

Hobbs has previously said that some 3,500 people have registered with the party, which has no formal name as yet.
