WEDDING OR FUNERAL?

Date: January 10, 2019 - Bird's Eye View

THE NEVER-ENDING saga of Fianna Fáil’s takeover of the moribund SDLP staggers on. The two parties have been dancing the hokey-cokey for a decade with FF, the reluctant suitor, joining in and pulling out at unpredictable intervals.

IRISH INDEPENDENT coverage of the attack on security men who evicted the McGann family from their Strokestown home was a masterpiece of investigative journalism.
