Chopper scare can’t keep Cullen down

MARTIN Cullen said he suspected the Finance Minister had arranged a meeting with him in Dublin yesterday knowing well the Arts, Sports and Tourism Minister was going to be in Killarney.

But Mr Cullen said this was one meeting he was not going to miss.

He left the Irish Hotels Federation annual conference in Killarney yesterday just after 3pm and had an Air Corps helicopter waiting at the racecourse to rush him back to Dublin.
