Seán Quinn speaks out after the Quinn Country documentary, Microsoft's plan for a power plant on a €900 data centre site and the latest Ireland Thinks survey — here's a look at Sunday's front pages.
The Sunday Independent leads with the results of a new Ireland Thinks poll: the headline reads, "Public believe gangland and Provisionals are linked." Another poll results reveal that more people want Micheál Martin to stay in the job of Taoiseach, rather than have Leo Varadkar take over the office later this month.
In the Business Post, Donal MacNamee reports that Microsoft are planning to build a large-scale gas power plant as part of a €900 million data centre in Dublin, due to concerns over the constraints on Ireland's energy grid.
