    I did indeed meet Conor in Paidí Ó Sé’s & I slagged him & insulted about George Colly & his cousin Seán Lemass Jr . But fair play to Conor he took it all on the chin . I do have to say Paidí took it different but Conor was an O.K guy ??

    Believe it or not the tribunal is responsible for a tax take of 2 billion, including almost 1 billion from the dirt investigation.
    Also, of the witnesses didn’t lie it would have been concluded in 6 months do direct your anger at the cost towards ahern and company.

    Don’t know much about Conor Haughey, which is a good sign. It must be rough having a thief and a traitor as your father, a black mark that a straight man would always be running from.
