Letters to the Editor: Has Bertie Ahern’s past been forgotten?

Former Taoiseach Bertie Ahern has rejoined Fianna Fáil after resigning from the party in 2012.

I am writing regarding Fianna Fáil accepting Bertie Ahern back into the party.

Tánaiste Micheál Martin seems to have forgotten the damning conclusions of the Mahon Tribunal toward Ahern’s evidence. To refresh his memory, the Tribunal concluded: “Much of the explanation provided by Mr Ahern as to the source of the substantial funds identified and inquired into in the course of the tribunal’s public hearings was deemed by the tribunal to be untrue.”
