From top: Denis O’Brien; Declan Ganley
On Monday Mr O’Brien’s lawyers filed affidavits from Colm Keaveney, a former Fianna Fáil TD, and Johnny Fallon, a political consultant, in which the two men link [Declan] Ganley with Red Flag, the PR company that Mr O’Brien has been suing for alleged conspiracy and defamation since 2015.
The former TD has also alleged that Karl Brophy, Red Flag’s founder, arranged for a senior Department of Finance official to meet Micheál Martin, the Fianna Fáil leader, in 2015 to discuss a Dáil debate on the sale of Siteserv to Mr O’Brien. He also alleged that he was sent parts of the dossier by Red Flag.
“This claim is odd, absurd, and untrue,” John McGuirk, a spokesman for Rivada, said. “Declan Ganley is not and was not a client of Red Flag.”

Meanwhile…
I’ll never stop pursuing justice over the ‘award’ of Ireland’s 2nd mobile licence. Read the Moriarty Tribunal Report, plenty there. That it appears to have been sat on says a lot about what ails Ireland. Then there’s ‘Amnesty’, some really are above the law.
