    A top Fianna Fáil politician? :rolleyes:

    He hasn't been a member of the party for years. Certainly not going to defend him, never heard of him before - nor do I know the details of the case. Let justice run its course.

    He was a top FF politician between 1989 and 2011 .

    The amnesia of Fianna Fail is breathtaking.

    What date did he resign, I don't believe he resigned . Did he ?

    I wouldn't necessarily classify him as a 'top politician'. To be honest I hadn't heard of him before now, had you?

    Also, did I say he resigned? All I know is that he is no longer a member of the party and hasn't been a member for some time.

    Unusual to see "top, Fianna Fáil and politician" in the same sentence.

    Yes I had heard of him before , when he got 10 million in loans from Anglo and Fingleton.

    As I said top FF politician.

    Hardly top of anything if he's just a senator. They're rarely, if ever, mentioned in the media.

    Never heard of him before either.
