Trevor Sargent in hot water over headed notepaper letter to Garda

[White Horse]

it s dermot ahern gettin the heat of himself put that out!!

It is strange how the Herald managed to get their hands on correspondence with the Gardai.

Could it possiblly be a leak from the Minister of Justice?

Surely not.

Just looked at the order of business for today in the Dáil.

Does anyone know why the first five questions, from Kenny, Gilmore, and Ó Caoláin are all about the National Archives Act and files withheld from 1979?

What's up with that?

To be fair, they do have copies of the correspondence.

I checked their website, this is a much more important story

Why would Dermot Ahern risk bringing down his own Government? Is it that serious a matter? What's his beef with Trevor Sargent or is it just a green thing?

[LDF]

I'd say if there was a whiff of scandal, a Green would quit very quickly. Just to show how it should be done, like.
It would only spell trouble for the government if the Greens tried to defend him and have him hang on to power at all costs. Which I don't see happening.

True, the Greens stumbled onto the moral high ground last week and I don't think they can afford to give that up.

I don't know. Maybe they can organise some garden leave for wee Trevor.

[White Horse]

If that's the case then it would appear that they have at last had a genuine scoop.

What's you thinking, has this one got legs?

Seems like a FF attmept to gain revenge on the Greens. In addition, the allegations are serious in their own rights.

So yes, I think this one has legs on a couple of levels.

Once there is distrust between FF and the Greens, the game is up.

[The_Big_Fellow]

Should the Greens not retaliate by pointing out that Mary Geoghegan Quinn has her own cupboard of skeletons from when she was Min of Justice.

Willie's revenge begins now!

Or is it Deirdre's revenge?

Next leader of FF?

Don't know. I'll guess the Monaghan and Dublin bombings ?? I think they were '79
