Kenny’s comments fit dictionary definition

I WAS puzzled to read in the Irish Examiner of January 17 advice from a Fine Gael spokesperson suggesting that I consult a dictionary in relation to my comments that Enda Kenny’s ill-timed criticisms of the Taoiseach were akin to an “act of treason”.

The Fine Gael spokesperson was quoted as saying that my statement was “factually incorrect if you look up the meaning of treason in a dictionary”.

I have since consulted two dictionaries. The Collins Compact defines treason as “betrayal of one’s country”.
