FF's Michael Moynihan on being left out: tells @IrishTimes Taoiseach "insulted me and my community".
He "worked extremely hard over nine years to rebuild (the) party, took a lot of stick in terms of picking candidates" but got "no thanks".

Fianna Fáil MOS line up is Anne Rabbitte, Niall Collins, Robert Troy, Mary Butler, Jack Chambers, Charlie McConalogue, Thomas Byrne and Dara Calleary (Govt Chief Whip).
