My spies at Belfast City Airport tell me that when the hirsute Sinn Fein President made his way through security recently a large bottle of fluid was confiscated. Closer inspection revealed it was anti-wrinkle cream. Given that Gerry Adams is such a smooth political operator I can only assume this must have been a gift for someone else.

ADAMS'S CREAM DESERVES CLOSER INSPECTION
Are you sure the cream was for his face?
I have my doubts because it seems that on most days Adams runs around like a bear with a sore arse.
Incidentally, did your spy notice whether or not the cream was purchased from Ann Summers?

Mark,
Why are you so biased to Gerry Adams? I know you wrote a book about him but it still doesnt hide his past.

Probably, the skin cream was for someone else....
