Sinn Féin’s Pearse Doherty (left) this afternoon calling for Minister for Justice Helen McEntee to come before the Dáil to answer questions about the appointment of Supreme Court Justice Seámus Woulfe
Meanwhile a whole succession of opposition parties now taking the formal chance to complain that Helen McEntee is not scheduled to take questions about how Seamus Woulfe got his job (which is separate to whether Seamus Woulfe should keep it)

This afternoon.
The Dáil responds to revelations the Taoiseach was not informed or involved in the process of putting Seámus Woulfe’s name to Cabinet and was not aware that at least three other candidates had expressed interest in the role.
More as we get it.

Either Michael Martin was fed a pack of lies by FG on the appointment of Woulfe and now he hasn’t the g’nads to challenge the liars in Fine Gael, or like grovelling GP Eamon Ryan has been bought lock stock and barrel to keep quiet. Michael Martin is not a spoofer, personal manipulator and narcissist like Leo The Leak but he has no political cop on, or personal courage. His FF colleagues will be forced to oust him sooner than later.
Meanwhile the fetid stink from Helen McEntee’s office is about to blow very soon…
The Varadkar ‘leadership’ has shown exactly why the majority of party members voted against him for leader. The ’thickos’ on the ground know what’s what.
Leaky and Michilín have done a right job destroying their respective parties. Fantastic.
These past few months have been the height of entertainment, watching them implode, get caught and so on.
All this was a stroke pulled off by FG for one of their own, how long before Judge Frank Clarke
and a few more pull the plug
With feck all people allowed into the Dail why are there 2 heally raes
