Tracker banks ‘playing Paschal Donohoe for a fool’

Finance Minister Paschal Donohoe has been accused of “being played for a fool” after his solution to the mortgage tracker rip-off scandal has been declared a “charade”, write Juno McEnroe and Daniel McConnell.

He was severely criticised as it was confirmed it will be another nine months before thousands of borrowers get repaid and compensated and before he is willing to consider sanctioning the banks.
