Sinn Fein and how do they form a government dilemma

well he did see it to report stage,it’s not a criminal court and clearly he had had enough

It is interesting that he felt the need to have the level of witness and representation there that he had

We could speculate all day on that

I’ve given you a reasonable guess as to your query anyway that most people would be thinking

Well you know my reading of it.
I think anyone would take the opportunity to rebut the preliminary report having stayed in the process so long.

If I am allowed to 'think' as you are, I would say it is 'interesting' that he walked and immediately tried to smear the process, not with details of what happened but with words he knew 'thinkers' like you and others in the media would latch onto with gusto. 'Kangaroo courts' and 'omerta'. Youse haven't let him down, I'll give youse that.😁

I 'think' that says quite a bit here.

I just posted my question to you and your response where I make clear;

And you are saying that details of that investigation involving another party member was leaked to Lynn Boylan on Saturday?

Your response:

Again: I would think it completely normal for party members to be informed once a shock resignation of a high profile member occurs. I can't see how it could work any other way.

Again, my question came from Lynn Boylan’s direct statement on how Brian Stanley could “end all of this” if he just told everyone what the allegation was.

Again Brian Stanley could not. The only logic to her statement would have been if she had known his allegations and dismissed them herself.

Further- you said yourself that “SF could not adjudicate” so it had to be reported to AGS.

This all flies in the face of your professed belief that whistleblowers should be protected.

No they didn’t.

Mary Lou McDonald said on television of Sunday night that if the complaint on Stanley had been criminal then it would have immediately have been reported.

Yet one day later we find out that Brian Stanley had a complaint of a criminal nature on September 11th that the SF “process” recommended he report and that they themselves reported one month later.

Mary Lou McDonald was not informed of this complaint of a potential criminal nature until October 12th though apparently.

This makes no sense, with them contradicting statements they make daily.

There isn’t a competent organisation in Ireland that would not inform their leader of a potential criminal charge if they became aware of one and said to that person they should report it.

Who cares what Morning Ireland think?

RTE are corrupt. They've all been bought off with taxpayers money by FF/FG to the tune of 750 million and now it's payback time.

This ain't complicated.

Your really losing the run of yourself. So you're now saying McGonagle shouldn't have been suspended until he was found guilty?

Of course you can. It happens on a weekly basis. Not every employer wants to go to the Garda after an employee took a chicken fillet roll without paying for it ffs. The notion that an employer can't then proceed with disciplinary process against the employee becusse of that is ludicrous.

There absolutely was an onus on BS legal team to report it according to you. You even linked to the article in the law society that's states it.

The obligation to make a report under section 19 is broad in scope, applying to any ‘person’ (which would include a solicitor). A person must disclose information that he “knows or believes might be of material assistance” to the gardaí in relation to the investigation of a relevant offence.

It is important for solicitors to be aware that there is no statutory exemption for legal professional privilege in the act.

Why were members of FG not investigated when they didn't report Leo btw?

About 3000 direct and indirect work for RTÉ,its finances are now under the remit of PAC and the C&AG and it’s news output subject to the same regulations as Virgin or independent radio

If you want to see what non independent TV/radio looks like,spend a few hours watching GB news or Fox,instead of talking out of your arse like shinnerbots on x

No it's not. It's an attempt to try and get you to not talk gibberish. Sf are a cult becusse they didn't care about McMonagle, what a take.

Why one?
According to @Bass Reeves all solictors and barristers have a duty to report matters if they think a criminal act occurred.
Surely if Stanley's team presented this allegation they 'believe' it and should have reported it.

I notice too that the same poster's elaborate conspiracy theory around SF appointing a northern barrister has disappeared too.

Even a “suggestion” would have meant the Guards were informed on the Stanley allegation.

Not the case on his counter allegation apparently.

Moreover she wasn’t even informed that there was one, even though they recommended that Stanley informed AGS.
