Good man , releases it on a Sunday where’s there less news coverage.
The question has to be genuinely asked who in FF knew about this and when.
>”I will also be resigning from any and all employment, consultancies, and directorships that I currently hold.”
He’s Chairman and Public Affairs Consultant at Edelman Ireland. There’s so many of these bullshit companies around with bullshit jobs for people like this. From their website:
>Edelman is the leading global strategic communications firm powered by data, innovation and creativity.

Have you ever heard such corporate-speak bollocks in your life.
An absolutely bizarre (and disgusting) choice for a man who works for one of the biggest PR firms in the world to make.
I wonder why he admitted it. My understanding from previous articles was that the media couldn’t name him.
Not the first time from a FF TD
Has he taken one for the team? To deflect from other things going on? Would he have written the reference if the survivor was a female?
Release the files! Really need to know if any church leaders wrote a reference for him.
So an ex TD, why were we told it was a current representative
who?
Fuckin prick. Have to wonder if the resignation will last very long or will he back in employment in a few months.
Totally disgusting, is he the only one?
Why in the wide world would you give a character reference for someone like this? The whole character reference nonsense is an absolute sham and should not be allowed for serious crimes.
It’s a bit late saying he is sorry now
One would question Glennon’s character given he didn’t see an issue with giving a reference to a sex offender ?
I always thought he was a wanker.
Before he was a TD, he was quite prominent . He used to be a rugby pundit on RTÉ. But he also used to do public relations work for the insurance Federation. He appeared on the Late Late show talking about how car insurance prices were fair, and how there was no money to be made in the insurance industry in Ireland- an argument that was clearly bullshit.
A couple of years later he got elected to Parliament and I said “that just says it all about Irish politics”. the country was being run on behalf of the establishment
The only reason I can think of that he would give Reference to someone like that is. He was paid.
Rugby player. Makes sense.
🤮🤮🤮
Did Jim know about the offences or did he just give out the reference because he was asked, I don’t know the details of the case .He should have done a bit of research in any case .Terrible mistake to make either way .
He’s made his money, and isn’t far off retirement. Won’t be worrying too much about this I’d say
I’m going to bypass party politics and blame his background in Irish rugby for this.
