Comment on this
I am referring to a person of note who has written in a Sunday newspaper that she was sexually molested by a member of Sinn Féin and I am calling on her to go to the Garda.

She would only do a favour to Maíria Cahill and every other woman in so doing. As she is writing about it, she should be prepared to do so.
