Fine Gael TD Damien English resigns as junior minister after reports about property ownershipFine Gael TD Damien English has resigned his position as a junior minister. Another one who forgot. Whats wrong with them that they cant keep their affairs in order? And si arrogant to think a quick sorry will make it go away....... please, people, stop voting for these gangsters. This is what journalism is. It holds those in power to account. If other outlets were challenging & investigating like the ditch, the currency, village magazine or gript the standards of our politicians would be better. All worth the subscription, take note the journal. Taoiseach Leo Varadkar said in a statement released minutes after English's one that the TD had offered his resignation as Minister of State last night. 'It was his view given the circumstances that his position was not tenable. I agreed and accepted his resignation.”

Fine Gael junior minister Damien English resignsMr English said he informed the Taoiseach of his decision following questions raised about a planning application from 14 years ago FG are riddled with this. When is it enough. People are sick and tired of hearing about this party and all the wrongs and corruption with no consequences. I do feel sympathy for the man in question but his party stinks and should be dissolved.

Nobody in Meath Co Co knew that English, a former county councillor and then TD, Owen Ed a house in Co Meath? Pull the other one. He shouldn't be allowed anywhere near politics ever again. This happens too often, zero transparency in Irish politics. He should be banned from running as a TD or senator now only way to stop corruption in politics
