Even sitting there in front of the world exposed as a corrupt pollie who took criminal backhanders, and as a love rat who is selling the woman he claims to have been going to marry down the river and potentially into a jail cell, Daryl Maguire remains madly pompous and egotistical. He is trying to […]
