Pity to see this thread slipping way down the ratings. I have enjoyed it very much.
Maybe we’d all have saved a lot of clicking and typing if we had paid attention to Leo’s original question:
“Will anyone inn Fianna Fail shout stop?”
You see, at the moment, it is up to Fianna Fail to pull the plug.
The Gardai may sometime in the future decide to get involved. The same might apply to the Revenue. Notice how fast they have been to say they’d be investigating Celia Larkin’s loan from FF?
It should not come as a big surprise if they announced at any time that they wanted to have a chat with Bertie over the revelations that have come out of his dealings with the Mahon Tribunal.
At present however, the ball is in Fianna Fail’s court. To answer Leo’s question, I’d say, Yes, plenty in FF will, if they see Bertie’s leadership proving a liability to the party, and if it happens, it will have sweet damn all to do with morality or legal points.
As Babs Keating (I think) once remarked, “There’s only six inches of a difference between a slap on the back and a kick up the arse!”
I have no doubt whatsoever that Bertie is guarding his arse very carefully those days.
