The court has heard 10 hours of tapes.Dowdall said the party would be stupid not to go into coalition government, with Mr Hutch saying it should do what is in the best interests of the country and not the party.
Dowdall then criticised Mrs McDonald for not attending the funeral of Mr Hutch's brother, Edward, who was killed days after the shooting of David Byrne at the Regency Hotel."She didn't attend the innocent man's funeral. She was on the telly the night Neddy got shot and she branded everyone as scumbags, she said they're all scumbags," he said.
"She shoulda turned around and said, I know that deceased man and I know that family. It'd be different Gerard if she was a politician and it was not her area. You's are in her area and she shoulda said that," he said.Mr Hutch replied there wasn't "one of them at" the funeral.Mr Hutch's lawyer has objected to use of the tapes because eight of the 10 hours were recorded in Northern Ireland when police bugged Dowdall's vehicle.
However, he pleaded guilty in advance of the trial to a lesser charge of facilitating the Hutch gang by making a hotel room available ahead of the murder. He was jailed for four years. He is currently being assessed for the Witness Protection Program after agreeing to testify against Mr Hutch.Sunday Politics can be seen again on BBC Two Northern Ireland tonight at 23:45 GMT and on the

Future 1st Taoiseach of a United Ireland
Its not ok to casually misspell Irish. 'Gardaí' is how it is spelled.

She wouldn't mind then that the government spent millions of pounds with a enquiry lasting years to prove her innocence.
Also heard her say it's not Sunday
Its not ok to casually misspell Irish. Gardaí is how it is spelled. The 'í' is what makes the 'eeee' sound at the end.
Stop misspelling Irish language. Its spelled Gardaí .... NOT Gardai.
I would not believe a word sinn fein says
Gerry’s been training them well deny deny deny deflect deflect
Guilty and bricking it as no doubt only the tip of the iceberg
SF member not telling the truth?.. are you sure... this surely can't be true
How can she call the likes of Hutch a scumbag, and simultaneously defend criminals like Slab Murphy? The mental contortions that republicans have to undergo on a daily basis are utterly hilarious It requires cult-like levels of discipline/delusion - it must be exhausting 😂
She's hardly going admit to links to the hutch gangs . But a fall of 4 percent in a recent poll in the Republic, sees that people don't believe her nonsense
Hardly going to throw the hands up is she?
I don't believe her.
