NATIONAL TREASURE

Sir, In your profile of Niall Stokes, chairman of the IRTC (April 6th) he is quoted as stating "I don't believe in marriage"

Sir, In your profile of Niall Stokes, chairman of the IRTC (April 6th) he is quoted as stating "I don't believe in marriage". Did my ears deceive me when I heard on an RTE news report that Mr Stokes denied membership of any political party but confirmed that he had been a member of a pressure group called "The Right to Re Marry"?

If Mr Stokes was promoting the right to re marriage while not believing in marriage in the first instance, he is clearly an individual with an exhilarating sense of humour, a veritable national treasure. - Yours, etc.,
