In June @MaryLouMcDonald wrote in the @IrishSunOnline that “There can be no whitewashing of detrimental impact the Kinahans have on society”. I now ask, does she stand by this or by her colleague @johnfinucane who’s law firm issued letters on behalf of #kinahan?
Today we see this reported on fully in @TheSundayLife
Deputy McDonald said “Attempts by Daniel Kinahan to portray himself as some sort of legitimate businessman will not wash with the communities he and his cohorts have sought to decimate and profit from.” Does she agree with the her own MP’s law firm that these are ‘outrageous’?
Deputy McDonald also said “As a TD for Dublin Central, I am only too aware of the devastation these people brought to the door of our communities.” Will she stand up against this devastation now?
In June, in the Dáil chamber, numerous TDs from Sinn Féin criticised the involvement of Daniel Kinahan in the #furyjoshua fight as well as boxing as a whole. I agree with them. Do they think it is right that one of their party’s leading lights’ firm represents Daniel Kinahan?
Barristers must represent a client, solicitors can say no. The relationship between @johnfinucane & the Kinahan front that is @MTKGlobal is well known: mtkglobal.com/mtk-fight-nigh…
But this is more serious, this an expressed connection between one of Sinn Féin’s leading lights, through his law firm, that he is one of just two partners in, with Daniel Kinahan himself.
Let’s not forget, Daniel Kinahan has been identified by an Irish High Court judge as controlling a vast international network of drugs and arms smuggling.

So this weekend, like many, we’re going to see the usual #brexit suspects come out with some of their regular outbursts. Here’s a few thoughts I have via a #Thread below. Image
Some of these will point blame at the EU for trying to sabotage a deal, focus specifically on Ireland or go for the approach that the EU will crack soon due to the pressures of the German car manufacturers or the likes. Image
We could be told, again, that Ireland will follow the U.K. out of the EU or indeed seek to rejoin the UK itself! Image
