Episode: William Hampton: The eccentric English millionaire who left his wealth to Sinn Féin
Description: William Hampton was a nomadic millionaire famously described by Leo Varadkar âa vagabond who lived in a caravanâ. Hampton left most of his fortune to Sinn Fein. Unsurprisingly â the party were happy to take the money, and equally unsurprisingly their rivals were quick to criticise that, especially given that the money went north. Now Sinn FĂ©in is set to take in over ÂŁ80k after a derelict cottage in County Carlow was found to belong to Hampton. CiarĂĄn Dunbar is joined by the Belfast Telegraphâs Andrew Madden.
