O’Donoghue steps in where Bertie fears to tread

ARTS MINISTER John O’Donoghue posed for pictures this weekend with the same property developer from whom Taoiseach Bertie Ahern tried to distance himself last year.

Mr Ahern broke from his annual holidays in Kerry last August to visit the site of a €20 million hotel being developed in Sneem by Louis Moriarty.

He was pictured with Mr Moriarty and was reported as lending his support to the development.
