Former Minister Michael Lowry has tonight launched a scathing attack on the report of the Moriarty Tribunal today, calling it a "show trial".

Former government press secretary Frank Dunlop has told the Flood tribunal that he was known to every councillor in Dublin during the early 1990s.

Political lobbyist Frank Dunlop, who has claimed he bribed several Dublin councillors for their votes on rezoning motions, has taken the witness stand at the Flood Tribunal.

THE Taoiseach must state clearly what he knew about disgraced former Fianna Fáil Minister Ray Burke’s activities and when he knew it, Fine Gael leader Enda Kenny demanded yesterday.

Ray Burke is expected to be questioned about new "bags of money" allegations when he takes the stand at the Flood Tribunal later today.
