Phil Hogan had to resign as EU commissioner because he attended the Clifden Golf Dinner, he sat at Table 1. So to replace him the Govt nominated Mairead McGuinness and Andrew McDowell.
Please tell me this is not the Andrew McDowell who sat at Table 7 between Neil Blaney and Conor Curran.
Dara Calleary, Ireland's agriculture minister, has resigned a day after he was caught attending a golfing event that included a sit-down dinner for 82 people in breach of lockdown rules.
