Itās as if he knew what answer Flanagan would give:
āFor me it will not be good enough just to get an answer that the minister has never given permission for this to happen. I want him to ask an Garda SĆochĆ”na directly and provide a guarantee to me and indeed all Oireachtas members that we can do our job without such concerns.ā
If anyone can sort out this entire mess, its Charlie. Thereāll always be snide malcontents like Kelly lobbing grenades however, always with the questions, never with an answer or a solution. Iām sure Charlie will come up with a wonderful appointment for Commissioner in the coming months.
Iām struggling to see who benefits in bugging Kellyās communications, if he had some other dirt to fire, surely he would have used it when Fitzgerald was wobbling?
Kelly always intimated during the Fitzgerald controversy that there was more to come, but his information seems to be so detailed he knew exactly what would be enough to get rid of Fitzgerald without throwing all his aces on the table.
Maybe heās a better card player than I give him credit for. Surely it would be Wallace and Daly that would be bugged rather than him? AK was late to the McCabe story and got involved backing Harrisonās claims, which always looked a bit dodgy.
AK was late to the party but his source has been bang on the money over the last few weeks. The source was obviously very dangerous for those involved since they had no idea where it was coming from other than it was from the top.
Kelly wouldāve been a left field person to whistleblower to and therefore perfect. AGS would never have suspected but kept a close watch on Daly & wallace. And Kelly is playing his hand very well, heās the type of cunt whoād get 15 with no trumps in a game of 25
