Sinn Fein ducking and weaving over policing…

Fri 16 February 2007, 8:02pm

Sometime in January, somewhere on Slugger, Pete argued that the Sinn Fein position on policing going into the election was dangerously vague. He argued that the party was effectively adopting a position not on its current real position, but on a future position. Yesterday on TalkBack Michelle Gildernew said she would not go tell the police about Republican guns. It seems consistent with Sinn Fein’s provisional position, but is it what they have promised Blair they were going to sign up to?

    Q.
    Some years back there was a Protestant (named Colin Wilson I think) murdered in an operation between the British Army and republicans. It was mentioned in a book. Does anyone know what the book was?

    What do you think?
    Judge it
