      Yes but the continuing lies about his daughter would make you sick..she was an outright the most corrupt woman in Ireland .and galway gay contuinely reeled him in for the big fall. If you replay it back you would think hay was his best friend it was either that or gay just got lucky. He was sacked and kicked out of Europe which was a blessing..he kept making a fool of the irish people that night but unknown to him he was fu**Ed over by gay byrne..

      I don't think Gay was setting him up. I thonk Gayvactually admired Flynn. He was a FF supporter abnd had Haughey on as a guest. Remember he had a whole show devoted to Brian Lenihan before the Presidential election which was won by Mary Robinson.

Everyone these days gets a sniff of something and jumps on it and the interviewee just shuts down and doesn't give anything away where as Gay trodded along played the good guy and guided Flynn towards his own demise.

      @@louismeunier6228 good catch Louis he brags gibberish but he insulted Tom Gilmartin and his wife. Mr Gilmartin before that night had refused to cooperate with the tribunal but after seeing this interview he changed his mind and came forward. Mr Flynn stole and deposited a cheque for £50,000 (a’donation’ to the Fianna Fail (Flynn’s) Party) in the 1980’. This is worth 100’s of thousands into today’s figures. Mr Gilmartin while knowing this ‘donation’ was questionable gave it anyway. When Gilmartin asked who to make the cheque out to Mr Flynn told him to make it out to cash. Mr Gilmartin saved a copy of the cheque, provided copy to the tribunal. Money was tracked to three separate retirement type accounts. One was in the name to his daughter Beverley who was an adult when opened. This interview ultimately destroyed the political careers of both Flynn’s.
      By the way the Irish government Fianna Fáil completely destroyed Tom Gilmartin financially because he stopped paying them off. There is an interview with Tom Gilmartin Jr on here too after his father passed if you are interested.
