Cowen plays down Ganley's return
TAOISEACH Brian Cowen yesterday played down the significance of Declan Ganley's re-entry into the Lisbon Treaty referendum campaign.
The Libertas founder said he had been "provoked" into re-entering the referendum debate by the "astonishing degree" of misrepresentation by the 'Yes' side.
Three months after vowing he would not campaign in a second Lisbon referendum debate following his failure to win a seat in the European Parliament, Mr Ganley said he was back by popular demand and had decided to re-enter the fray.
