    David Quinn has regularly been at the DOH Covid hearings with a clear agenda and now Cormac Lucey was there this week with going on at length presenting theories to the CMO, neither is a journalist why is the Sunday Times allowing them to use their name, where are their actual journalists?

    I suspect Quinn's attending as a rep of his "institute" (Lolek Limited) , not the paper.

    Lucey is an actual journo for them I believe

    no both cite the Sunday Times as I already said. Cormac Lucey isn't a journalist, he's a Chartered Accountant with a opinion column in the Sunday Times.

    David Quinn back again yesterday more then any journalist there his questions are more like assertions that he wants to promote and then the DOH experts have to rebut.

    For a guy who works running an "institute" and who is allegedly part of a group that is constantly being silenced, he does have alot of free time to go around being heard.
