Church showdown

IRELAND
One in Four

Bertie Ahern and the leader of a sex-abuse victims’ charity held a tough-talking showdown yesterday over the scandal of paedophile priests.

One in Four boss Colm O’Gorman said he vented “his sense of outrage” over the Taoiseach’s description of the Ferns Report as “disappointing”.

And he described his audience with Mr Ahern and Minister for Children Brian Lenihan at Government Buildings yesterday as “constructive”.
