You’ll recall how, in November 2011, FG Cllr Darren Scully made the decision to stop representing black Africans.
He subsequently resigned from his mayoral role and was expelled from the Fine Gael party.
Well he’s back.
KFM is reporting:
“In an exclusive extended interview on Kildare Today, the General Secretary of Fine Gael Tom Curran confirmed Cllr Scully’s readmission to the party ahead of next May’s local elections.”
“During the interview, Tom Curran condemned Cllr Scully’s original remarks, but said that the Cllr is not a racist and that he’s paid sufficiently for his error.”
“Asked if Taoiseach Enda Kenny endorsed councillor Scully’s return, Mr. Curran indicated that the Taoiseach doesn’t become involved with every aspect of the party.”
