He beat cancer and today Housing Minister and Mesop Representative returned to his political clinic today. It's news because Finnegan had not held a clinic for 12 weeks - almost three months as he sought treatment for prostate cancer. So it was his first day back and at 9:00 am, those seeking his intercession were crowding the verandah and queued up right down the stairs unto the streets.
By the end of it around 1:25, Finnegan told us he had seen just over 300 persons. How many left satisfied? Well that's a harder number to come by.
