“The State cannot handle the truth of their own involvement in the collapse of the banks. In theory that could expose the state to litigation from bondholders, shareholders, investors and anybody else who got their fingers burnt.
And when you look at what the State does when it really really wants to tackle something after Veronica Guerin’s murder, we moved in extraordinary apparatus, the Criminal Assets Bureau, multi-disclipinary teams getting in to deal with a very specific problem.
You look at what’s happened after the banking crisis, has there been anything near that political will reflected in legislation and other measures? And for me, that speaks volumes about the real committment.”

What you may need to know
1. We had a clip ages ago, now here’s a first trailer for Lance ‘Kisses‘ Daly’s new movie.
2. It stars Pat Shortt, Fionnuala Flannagan and a Gleeson (Brian), with a Tubridy cameo.
3. Bonus points for the Simple Minds tee.
4. Minus points for the excess Shortt toplessness. Unless that’s what you’re into, like.
5. Pat’s currently starring in a West End Production of Martin McDonagh’s The Cripple Of Inishmaan, alongside Daniel ‘Harry Potter’ Radcliffe. Fair ball.
6. It opens the Galway Film Fleadh on July 9.
Release date: July 19
He’s back.
