6. I can think of 4: Ciaran Cannon, Mary Mitchell-O’Connor, Fergus O’Dowd, Liam Twomey.
8. Billy Kelleher
4. Sad to say it was probably Barney Rock. I can remember a PD Leaflet coming in the door in the mid – nineties with pictures of Barney Rock and Alan Stanford giving their ‘celebrity endorsements’ to the PDs.
! won’t give any answers but can tell you that the political party which had its HQ at 8 Marlboro Street shared that building with an anarchist bookshop (ABC Books) and the ’32 County Feminist Federation’.
Hope there wasn’t more than one Party with a HQ there over the ages.
