ALAN SHATTER SENT Taoiseach Enda Kenny a letter of resignation today outlining his reasons for leaving his position in Government.
In it, the former Minister for Justice says that he has not had time as yet to read the full 300 page report by Sean Guerin SC into the garda whistleblowers controversy, but has decided to resign to avoid controversy for the government.
Below is what he wrote to the Taoiseach:
Brexit preparations.
@Juan Fangio: This foolishness was there long before Brexit, long after the GFA and would continue long after the decision was made not to have a border. Mindless thugs in a power struggle with other mindless thugs.
Patriots?—No Lunatics.
@John Mc Donagh: organized “republican” criminals
@Garreth Mc Mahon: Are you suggesting a FF connection? Sorry, I missed your inclusion describing the criminals as ‘republican’. Couldn’t be FF so.
@Cal Mooney: Your posts just get more inane every day.
Well done to An Garda Síochána.
We’ve got a mole!
