Diarmaid Mac Aonghusa’s mother, Mrs Catherine McGuinness (former Justice).

Bit ironic considering that Catherine McGuinness is a direct descendent of an illegitimate child of King William IV

A warm, witty and generally delightful lady.
she reminds me of one my hero’s The Notorious RPG (US Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg)-there’s a really wonderful documentary currently playing,in various film festivals about her amazing life and contribution to society,will hit Netflix shortly.

I think she has always been recognised as our Ruth Bader Ginsburg
I know I have
actually I met her and Diarmuid on Saturday
and after they left the official Call room and made their way back out onto the square, the crowds literally parted in front of her
I wouldn’t be surprised if some dipped their heads like she was back on the bench
btw lovinDublin have deleted that post
an unusual activity for them since they tend to re-post rather than delete their content
have say wasn’t overly familiar with her work,(had look it up) I tend follow the commercial courts and their justices,probably a bit too much :)
took my daughter to the RPG movie, she absolutely loved it and has told her friends to go,so a new generation will be familiar with RBG-hopefully also with Catherine after this,who’s also a truly remarkable person.
Catherine McGuinness is an absolute delight.
A powerful woman!
