Both the BBC and the Irish Examiner are reporting that Charlie Haughey has died.
For any who are unaware of Charlie Haughey, he is a former Taoiseach (prime minister) of Ireland – one of the most controversial figures in Irish politics since the foundation of the state.
The end of an era.

Too easy Michele, too easy.
Everyone knows who and what he was. No need to say any more.
