The Mighty Sean Quinn is Back

Sean Quinn we salute you.

It gives me the greatest pleasure to witness the return of Sean Quinn to his headquarters. There is no doubt that in the nine counties of Ulster the majority of people have the utmost respect and admiration for Sean Quinn, for his ability and acumen and the strength of character to fight against a corrupt state and to never give up.

I would like to wish Sean Quinn, his family and all those who supported him all the best for 2015.
