PROBLEM: Sentence 1: Lucinda Creighton has claimed that people resent her as being "overambitious" and "in too much of a hurry" to climb the political ladder. The outspoken Fine Gael deputy was speaking after a heated exchange with Enda Kenny led to her walking out of a parliamentary party meeting last week. Creighton, who at 29 is already acknowledged as a potential future leader of Fine Gael, slammed detractors who see her rapid success in a "negative" light -- and believes her friend and colleague Leo Varadkar has suffered the same fate. Speaking in the run up to the Fine Gael Ard Fheis, Ms Creighton also rejected suggestions which surfaced last week that she is seen as a 'loose cannon' within the party.  "I certainly don't regard myself as a loose cannon. I'm absolutely part of the Fine Gael team," she said. Sentence 2: Lucinda Creighton is the leader of a parliamentary party.
