Sean FitzPatrick and “those establishment f**kers”, aka southern Protestants…

Excellent quote from McWilliams’ Follow the Money
which uncovers the calibre of the man running the dirtiest (so far as we know) bank in Ireland... which were obviously not intended for publication…

“Then he came closer, squeezed my arm and practically hissed between clenched teeth: “No f***ing Protestant is coming near us. Those establishment f***ers and Bank of Ireland have been running our country before we came along, and those f***ers are not going to bring me down. None of them are ever going to look down on us again. We are the outsiders, and this is our moment. Those f***ers don’t own us any more.”
