Sam McBride: The mystery of Ian Paisley Jr’s office – unpaid rates, red letters and court action (Part 1)
Published 8 months, 2 weeks ago
Description
When Ian Paisley Jr lost his parliamentary seat last July, it was the end of an era. Once Westminster’s most expensive MP, Paisley Jr had built a political career on the legacy of his famous father – but it wasn’t without scandal. A Belfast Telegraph investigation has uncovered some strange financial dealings around his constituency office, which is now owned by the unnamed representative of a dead man. Authorities also had to repeatedly threaten court action to secure payment of the rates bill for his office in Ballymena.
In part 1 of a special investigation, Sam McBride joins Olivia Peden.
