Political Quote

"There is also a constitutional right not to be murdered? There is a constitutional right not to have your family taken hostage. There is a constitutional right not to have your child die of a drug overdose. There is a constitutional right not to bury your innocent son as the victim of gangland violence."

---Michael McDowell, Minister for Justice

There is a constitutional right to the presumption of innocence, unless your name is Frank Connolly.

What heinous rot.

Cllr Keith Martin said...

Michael McDowell always talks about crime as if it is someone else's responsibility.

Cllr Keith Martin said...

Frank Connolly and the public inquiry centre got to close to the truth and had to be shut down.

McDowell was just Bertie's hatchet man.

In McDowell's world you can be found guilty without proof and your silence can be used to prove your guilt.

The man is a menace!
