Kenny, who has brain cancer, spoke of the latest soul-destroying skirmish with the medical establishment in his fight to obtain cannabis oil. He appealed to a consultant oncologist – any consultant oncologist – who can support his cause to contact him (broadsheet@broadsheet.ie). The film mentioned by Kenny and Johnny can be viewed below
