General Practitioner Contract: Statements (3 Nov 2020)

Paul Murphy: Does the Tánaiste understand why Maitiú Ó Tuathail in a conversation with Chay Bowes, unfortunately using very vulgar and inappropriate language, said in relation to the Tánaiste that "he would be [unfortunately] raped if the IMO lads knew he was giving me shit", meaning material like this? That is that the Tánaiste would be in trouble with the IMO if it knew he was...

General Practitioner Contract: Statements (3 Nov 2020)

Paul Murphy: Does the Tánaiste accept that conversations from the inner sanctum of the NAGP suggest that regardless of the Tánaiste's story now, it certainly did not think it got the document in some official capacity?

General Practitioner Contract: Statements (3 Nov 2020)

General Practitioner Contract: Statements (3 Nov 2020)

Paul Murphy: I think people can draw their own conclusions if the Tánaiste does not sue a magazine which has publicly and repeatedly described him as a lawbreaker and as having committed a crime. Does the Tánaiste believe, as he said in his statement on Saturday, that the Official Secrets Act does not apply to him?

Paul Murphy: The Official Secrets Act.

General Practitioner Contract: Statements (3 Nov 2020)

Paul Murphy: That is the Donald Trump defence, that a person is entitled to do what he or she likes because he or she is the Taoiseach. It's not just as simple as optics, perceptions do matter and when it comes to a contract of this size, importance and cost, it has to be seen to be all above board as well ...
