I remember saying: ``Will we get a receipt?'' Bailey said:'Will we fuck.'
James Gogarty recounting a conversation with developer Michael Bailey on the way to Ray Burke's house, where £40,000 was allegedly handed over.
I was basically targeted last night because I was a Catholic. The intention was to kill.
Patrick Shields after his Loughinisland home was targeted by loyalists last week.
Connolly's warning - if you simply replace the Union flag over Dublin Castle with a green flag and leave the existing structures of society in place, you will have achieved virtually nothing - had gone unheeded. We have a mish-mash of a society, one in which the gap between rich and poor, far from diminishing, grows wider.
Examiner columnist TP O'Mahoney on the anniversary of the First Dáil and the failures of subsequent Leinster House administrations to implement the radical message of it. Thursday 21 January.
It would lead to a more sophisticated campaign by loyalists, who would attempt to cripple the Irish economy, attacking the tourism and agricultural sectors. It is very easy to attack bloodstock and it is very easy to attack tourists. I mean tourists can be got anywhere in any main street, in any city or rural area, in Dublin, and those things aren't hard to do. There is a bigger threat from loyalism than there has been in the past.
Chilling message from Billy Hutchinson in an interview with the Belfast Telegraph last week.
We bought our house on Craigwell Avenue over six years ago. It was our first home as a married couple and we put in a new roof and windows, central heating and carpets. We were happy living there. But since July, it's been a nightmare. We've ben afraid to go to bed at night and sleep has been impossible. The loyalists have been throwing rockets and petrol bombs at the back of the house.
Catholic family who moved into a caravan 12 miles from their home on the Garvaghy Road due to the loyalist siege of the area.
My country did appalling things to your country over the past 700 years... So I'm going to try to put it right.
Actor Jeremy Irons in an article in the Sunday World entitled, I'm so ashamed to be English. Sunday 24 January.
This would be a serious mistake and I think that the British government and Mo Mowlam in particular appreciates that more acutely than anyone else.
Martin McGuinness on calls to slow down prisoner releases. Irish News, Tuesday 26 January.
The Taoiseach has been remarkably less than convincing in rebutting the allegations made by the developer. He cannot recollect being made aware of the £50,000 contribution to the party through Mr Flynn. That fell short of an outright denial of any knowledge of the cheque. It is stretching the imagination a bit thin that somebody would not be definite about such a discussion not taking place.
Editorial in the The Examiner on the `Cheque Saga' involving property developer Tom Gilmartin, EU Commissioner Padraig Flynn and Bertie Ahern. Tuesday 26 January.
