Fuck that, Bloody Liar!!
'I don't know anything about the case, I first saw it reported at the weekend' ... I live in France and I know about this case and have done for a long time. 'If the situation that arose in Scotland has now arisen in Ireland we are going to have to deal with it in a similar way' Why repeatedly bring Scotland into this - own your own mistakes. This was not right when it first happened and it is not right now.
This case has been in the public eye for a long time and if it were not, there were sufficient concerns about this particular person that it should have been brought to the attention at the highest levels.

There are approximately 500 female prisoners in Ireland ( and 4,500 male prisoners) - it is not beyond the expectations of the average person that the government would be aware of the most extreme cases in the country. As far as I can tell, this person has been in Limerick Prison since at least September 2020.

LV has spoken about listening to the voices from those most affected :

but only if those most affected are male - it would seem.
Putting 4 men in front of the camera for this - not a good luck and the other men need media training - inability to maintain eye contact front and centre is not good.
