Ex minister in scandal to contest General Election
A former Government junior minister who last year circulated bogus election letters from the Taoiseach, aims to run for Fianna Fáil in the next general election.
Cllr Lorcan Allen, who served as a TD from 1961-1982, was suspended for a year in July 2004 after he admitted circulating up to 2,000 bogus letters from Bertie Ahern, calling on local election voters to support him rather than his party running mate.
