INSIDE POLITICS - MC DOWELL GONE

Michael McDowell is gone. A couple of minutes ago he appeared at the RDS to say that it was all over. In a clearly emotional stand-up interview, he said:

"At this point it is very clear that as far as I am concerned my period in public life as a public representative is over."


An extraordinary moment. A sad moment, too. For all his divisiveness, he electrified Irish politics.
