Flynn furious at cumann shutdown

BEVERLY FLYNN, the Mayo TD expelled from Fianna Fáil last year, yesterday decried the party’s decision to dissolve a local cumann in Castlebar as “very shabby treatment.”

Fianna Fáil’s Árd Chomhairle unanimously decided on Thursday night to effectively shut down the Micheál Ó Móráin cumann in Mayo’s largest town, for long the political power base of the Flynn family.

In a lengthy statement issued yesterday, FF said it had been left with no option.
