Sinn Fein are not a Normal Political Party

The jury had to base this case on one Aspect only and that was whether the BBC were entitled to claim Gerry sanctioned the shooting

Has Matt forgotten the Aine Adams case or does he even care?

Matt is a hard core terrorist supporter at heart, he absolutely adores the scum which he regards as hero's.
Who were actually failures
One cannot help stupid people.
 
I heard on RTE radio earlier that Jarrys legal team were hoping for at least a 200k judgement.

So that's a failure.

But a massive win as always for the legal business, get this, they reckon that the legal fees will cost between 3 or 4 million.

The legal business is rotten to the core.
 

BBC faces legal costs bill of more than €3m after jury finds it defamed Gerry Adams​

Former Sinn Féin president said he took case to ‘put manners on British Broadcasting Corporation’​

The BBC is facing a legal costs bill of more €3 million after a High Court jury in Dublin found the broadcaster defamed Gerry Adams in a 2016 broadcast and related article, legal sources have said.

The former Sinn Féin leader claimed the Spotlight programme and article defamed him by falsely accusing him of giving “the final say” in the murder of MI5 informant Denis Donaldson at a cottage in Glenties, Co Donegal, in 2006. Mr Adams described the allegation during the trial as a “grievous smear”.

In finding he was defamed, the jury on Friday decided Mr Adams should be awarded €100,000 to vindicate and restore his reputation.

Speaking outside court, Mr Adams said he took the case “to put manners on the British Broadcasting Corporation”, which he said “upholds the ethos of the British state in Ireland”.

 
IRA/SF annual general conference cancelled.
Accommodation and cost apparently was the problem.
Delegates are entitled to a double room in case they bring a guest to their bedroom to relax after a heavy day of debates.
Hopefully they will recognise the scarcity of accommodation these days.

They are probably most concerned if a crowd like those above turn up at the venue protesting
