This is one of the Fianna Fail councillors said to be echoing far-right views, in the wake of the arson attack in Galway.
Property-based-corruption – the bread and butter of political corruption in Ireland, and of Fianna Fail in particular – as alive and brazen as ever.
Am I surprised no.
The council can’t act once 7 years have passed, as is the case here. The Ditch need to cop on to themselves with their misleading headlines in cases like this.
I wonder if this is related to that Meath CoCo court case – a decision by the Supreme Court on Thursday, I believe.
The county councils need to be destroyed if we’re ever to be free from FFGDUP. They are an infestation that has corrupted every aspect of our society.
Excellent example of how a technically correct headline can be totally misleading.
A much more honest headline would be “Council says it *can’t* act…”.
It “won’t” act because it has no legal power to do so.
>The veteran politician told RTÉ that local people were “afraid of what they will encounter from now on with every sort of stranger in the area”. The hotel was destroyed the following day in a suspected arson attack. Speaking in the aftermath of the fire, Fianna Fáil councillor Séamus Walsh told reporters, Iif it was done maliciously, it is absolutely the fear for the safety and wellbeing of their families that drove people to this”.
