It's stories like this that make so glad to be Irish.We are crazy in so many delightful ways. (and some not so delightful!)

Amazing how fast the Irish judicial system can move when it wants to. Three years and counting since a number of fraudsters and conmen were identified in influential positions in the Irish banking sector and files are still processing in stately Buck Mulligan fashion between important offices in Dublin. McNamara should have bought Anglo-Irish Bank when he had the chance. He'd own Ireland's biggest monument to the ancient art of Fianna Fail and be playing golf with judges today.

@Murph46, no I don't think it's Irish, unless the soft drink Moxie was. That's where the term comes from. I suppose you know that, though. McNamara's got courage, fortitude and tenacity.

Erra.They should leave it there.It might come in handy as a spot to bury the FF party.An everlasting reminder of betrayal.

Leave him alone The council should worry about other issues. Yeah... and what is the close protected archeological site? The structure would be a site for tourists to visit. I think it's cool; I'd go see it!

Surely they could use it as a tourist site.I would visit it vs.Stonhenge cause I'd rather be in Ireland.
