Part of our debate here is about the nexus between politicians, property and the banks. I wanted to look at the decision taken by the papers back in April 2007 to back the Government in the forthcoming general election. How does Mr. O'Regan account for the change in the newspapers at the time? Until then, the headlines for the incumbent Government had been pretty unpleasant, and then there was a sea change in April 2007 in support of the then Government in the election later than year.
