Ahern: FitzGerald 'put people before politics'

Bertie Ahern has said Garret FitzGerald was "never partisan or tribal" in his politics, and "truly did put people before politics".

"I was only starting off in politics at a time when Garret was taking over as leader of his party, but he was always approachable and friendly in those days and that never changed," said Mr Ahern.
