Cowen Loses Allies as Reshuffle Plan Criticized by Lawmakers - Bloomberg: "Irish coalition lawmakers criticized Irish Prime Minister Brian Cowen’s plan to appoint new government ministers months before national elections.

Justice Minister Dermot Ahern, Transport Minister Noel Dempsey and Defense Minister Tony Killeen, supporters of Cowen who aren’t contesting the election, are stepping down, the Dublin-based government said late last night. Health Minister Mary Harney is also resigning."
