    Declan Ganley's Passport

    As I did not start this thread I am intrigued as to why it has been put here as if I did. The below comment was from another thread about new Irish Passport holders and seems strange in the context. I DID NOT START THIS THREAD!!!!!!!! However as it is of interest

    Why was Declan ganley asked about holding a US passport on The Political Program?
    And Why has he denied that he registered himself as British in handwritting only to later say it was a Data input error?
    Why did he start saying he was Irish in recent years despite this?

    "http://www.irishtimes.com/newspaper/ireland/2008/0922/1221998222102.html
    "Mr Ganley denied that he had ever declared his nationality to be British."
    However
    "The records for Ganley International registered with the UK Companies House listed Mr Ganley as a director, and his wife, Delia Mary as company secretary."

    In 1995, Mr Ganley is first listed as a director of Ganley International - a company previously known as Acegrind.

    Mr Ganley's date of birth is then listed as July 23rd, 1968, before his nationality is given as British and his occupation as a trader.

    These details,[........] remain consistent for the rest of the 1990s.

    In February 2001, a handwritten entry for Mr Ganley again lists his nationality as British, although by then his home address had changed to Moyne Park, Tuam.

    In 2002, the annual returns are again handwritten and again Mr Ganley's nationality is listed as British, while a London home address is listed on this occasion.

    Questioned about the matter on Friday evening, Mr Ganley told The Irish Times : "Somebody must have made a data input error."


    Since when is handwriting a data input error
    DUh Declan Ganley caught out again
    But at last he seems to have reconciled himself , belatedly with Irish citizenship





    Let's hope that these passport holders are proud enough of their Irish citizenship not to register their nationality as British if they ever register companies, unlike Mr Declan Ganley who decided that Irish was best only 2 years ago

    It isn't either-or. You can be Irish and British. He was born in the UK and thus has UK citizenship, but he is also an Irish citizen through the jus-sanguine aspect our laws through his Irish parentage. Cheap shot.

    where in that article did it say Ganley defined himself as British ? I've read it twice and can't see it unless i'm going blind. also what the relevance this this at all ? if he has dual citizenship thats his entitlement, and there may have been a valid business requirement for him to select british citizenship

    FT The Truth is now a cheap shot? Come on , though I note from your blog that like new Libertas you also have an aversion to unions......................so you have much in common with Declan Ganley.

    PK if the EU ever needs a Witchfinder-General I'll tell them to give you a call. You give Joe McCarthy a run for his money.

    I did not start a thread called Declan Ganley's passport what is this???
    Also if it is ab good topic why did you give me an infraction and why was Ursula Halligan asking about Ganley having a US passport on TV3 on Political Party?

    It seemed like a loaded question. Did he get one to pursue his Iraqi business?

    Not really.

    Surely it's fair and open to question the questioner?
