The first of Sean O’Rourke’s two part documentary, 'The Two Tribes' on the paths taken by Fianna Fáil and Fine Gael was aired on RTÉ One Television last evening.
The difference between the two parties explained by a member of one of the parties: “When we are in they are out”.
Someone else said the difference between Fianna Fáil and Fine Gael was that the Fine Gael fellas don’t roar.
Éamon de Valera said that if The Irish Press disappeared the Fianna Fáil Party would disappear shortly afterwards.
"Even if you didn’t admire him you were mesmerised by him.” - Justine McCarthy on Charles Haughey.
Garret FitzGerald went out to see ailing Charles Haughey before he died. A nice touch.
