Deserved apology

Well done to Michael Clifford for championing a public apology to Tom Gilmartin.

As an Irish emigrant I have wondered if a British or American investor would have been treated in such a fashion as he was.

Like many who left I have often longed for a life in Ireland, but reading the Mahon Report has been the end of that.

Yet why do I feel that those named in the report will pay little or no price for it.

Will Flynn or Ahern’s children ever need to take the emigrant plane? I doubt it.
