Throwing frames for money is a disgrace also Mr. Higgins
@Brian Dunne: indeed. People’s memories are so short.
@Brian Dunne: Disgrace ,some statment…”I can just hear my Dad saying,dont get mixed up with them crooks and start throwing matches” Think Higgins should have left that one alone..
@Brian Dunne: when did he do that?
@John O Reilly: a quick google and the footage is there.
The irony
