Mick Wallace underpayment of VAT

I miss the days when we just used to think of criminal TDs as cads and loveable rogues or Fianna Fall (collectively) and vote for them in our droves.

This outrage at each and every criminal activity that would see one of us citizens locked up or fined or sacked at least, but them continue with a very well paid job and a very well paid pension that kicks in as soon as they leave rather than at 65 like the rest of us, is getting tiresome. It was so much easier for our parents.
 
I wonder if Mick Wallace speaks in the Dail about the possible hitman would he then be entitled to Dail privilage and cannot be prosecuted.
