A caller to Liveline after the publication of the Mahon Tribunal Report.
Joe, if there was sworn testimony under oath and it was untruthful, what does that imply?
Joe Duffy: Ok, well the Tribunal doesn’t make the leap. They just say the evidence was untruthful, they don’t accept Mr. Ahern’s narrative of how he came by the money but they don’t offer an alternative narrative.
Phew, that was a close one, nearly forced to use the ‘P’ word.
I oftentimes wonder what happened to the Joe Duffy who led the Students Union or the Joe Duffy who worked in the Dept. of Justice Probation Service
