Fine Gael leader Enda Kenny has dismissed Taoiseach Brian Cowen's speech to a business function in Dublin last night.

Various media organisations are describing the speech as passionate and inspiring, with Mr Cowen receiving a standing ovation from delegates at the Dublin Chamber of Commerce event.

However, speaking to local radio in Limerick today, Mr Kenny said he had heard the same speech on many occasions and would prefer if the Taoiseach took action to sustain, protect and create jobs.
