For anybody who is curious, here is the transcript of the Morning Ireland interview. Stanley is claiming elsewhere that the dates given by McDonald in the interview are incorrect.

Compare and contrast how people jump on either Fine Gael or Fianna Fáil whenever they fuck up, and the relative silence in Irish internet spaces to this Sinn Fein implosion. Very telling
All this sounds like someone wanted him out of contention as a candidate so they did the accusation which would have quietly gone away had he not had enough dignity to fight back. Now they are putting it all on the gardai to “sort it out” when the reality looks to be punishing him for speaking out. It will not be resolved quickly and he will have a perceived stink on him most likely even if its resolved in his favour. Never forget the process IS the punishment.
Is there anything to be said for another internal investigation?
She really is brazen LOL.
