Catherine Connolly says she did represent banks in courts but fails to clarify whether it included home repossession cases

"Áras candidate previously said claim by Fine Gael councillor made about time as barrister a 'cowardly attack'"

"O'Reilly's bar in Salthill faces out towards the choppy waters of Galway Bay, but it was the scene of a stormy exchange that Catherine Connolly described as "a cowardly personal attack"."

"The Independent TD was accused by a Fine Gael councillor of representing a bank in repossession cases despite "jumping up and down" about ­housing and homelessness."

An Áras candidate labelled a claim by a Fine Gael councillor about her time as a barrister a 'cowardly attack'. A stormy exchange occurred in O'Reilly's bar in Salthill, which looks out over Galway Bay, and Catherine Connolly described the encounter as "a cowardly personal attack". The Independent TD faced an accusation from a Fine Gael councillor that she had represented a bank in repossession cases. The accusation contrasted with Connolly's vocal positions on housing and homelessness, with the councillor noting she had been "jumping up and down" about those issues while allegedly acting for a bank.
