O’Reilly: Culture of greed will take a long time to go

The European ombudsman, Emily O’Reilly, says it takes a long time for a culture of greed to leach out of society.

President Michael D Higgins said recently he believed the greedy attitudes highlighted by leaked Anglo tapes were not shared by the people of Ireland.

However, Ms O’Reilly said she had yet to be convinced that Irish attitudes had changed since the crash.
