Alleged ticket-touting, involving about €3m, being investigated in foreign jurisdiction, gets inquiry.
Nama involves tens of billions. Alleged corruption. Being investigated in foreign jurisdiction. ‘Sure we can’t have an inquiry lads!’
With this in mind, I’m finding the heavy press coverage of the Rio scandal to be sickening. Not saying it isn’t worth covering, but c’mon journalist people! Get some perspective! Something more important is going on right now and it is getting no where near as much coverage. That’s my rant over.

+5.79bn Couldn’t agree more… that’s been my take on this all along. This circus about Olympic tickets has been a very convenient smokescreenfor both the Irish and the Brazilian government.
The hypocricy of an immediate investigation on this, while ignoring the obvious issues with NAMA selling this country off is glaring. Where’s the NAMA investigation?

John Delaney hasn’t been seen lately. On the run in Rio, attempting to cross the border in the dead of night or schlepping about Phibsboro as usual?!?

He’s staying well out of the way so he doesn’t have to nail his colours to the mast.
Rory….there is something that the irish can do on Nama sales. Send in to Mick Wallace / Clare Daly details of any NaMa transactions in your area. I would bet my last dollar that usa vulture funds have irish politicans dirty mitts all over it. Just note the evasion , the no answers , the arse twitching in Dail when this matter is raised. There is a property building near the 4 LCourts in Dublin…..for a few euro you can find out who owns what….if morgaged or repossessed….we can all find pieces of this corrupt jigsaw.
