Funding issue is not confined to Ganley

EVERY other day it seems there is a columnist, TV pundit or minister demanding to know where Declan Ganley got the money to fund the Libertas campaign for a no vote on the Lisbon Treaty.

But where did the yes campaign get its money? Perhaps the “illuminati” in Brussels contributed? That’s no more implausible than claims the CIA gave cash to Mr Ganley.

I understand he is a wealthy businessman. He could have stuck his hand in his pocket for at least some of it. This seems fairer than the Government sticking its hand in our pockets to promote its view over our heads.
