SCANNAL –  Ivor Callely

TX: 5th Oct 2015 RTÉ One 19.30hrs

S’é scéal Ivor Callely ceann dosna  scannalacha polaitíochta móra na linne – Cuireadh príosún air i ndiaidh dhá bhliain s’ fiche san Oireachtas de bharr é a  éileamh calaoiseach ar chostaisí fón póca. Críoch náireach do shaothar pholaitiúl uailmhianach.

Even as Irish scandals go – Ivor Callely’s stands out – after 22 year in the Oireachtas, he was jailed for fraudulently claiming mobile phone expenses.  A  shameful end to an ambitious, if ever controversial,  political career.
