Ouch (again)!
Just received this from Republican Sinn Fein as retort to Martin McGuinness’s statement on the Politics Show yesterday. Predictable perhaps, but worth noting nonetheless:From Republican Sinn Fein:
Martin McGuinness’ claims that those opposed to English rule in Ireland wish to force the Provos’ former military wing back onto a military footing are laughable, said a spokesperson for Republican Sinn Féin.
“Republicans have no desire to see the Provisionals resume hostilities, as these would undoubtedly be conducted against those who have remained faithful to the Republican ideal. The Provos retained their military capacity through the adoption of the RUC as their armed wing. There is absolutely no useful purpose for the continued existence of the so-called ‘Provisional Army Council’, said RSF Director of Publicity, Richard Walsh.
“We already know that statements purporting to emanate from that body in fact originated from 10, Downing Street. They exist merely as a counter-revolutionary force.”
Is this satire or what!
I always liked their line about the P Specials.
What is ‘worth noting’ about it?
“English rule in Ireland” lol
What century are these guys living in? Can they not see that the English don’t rule in Ireland, Brussels does?
Director of Publicity sounds far too benign – is this a public sector job?
Joke
There is absolutely no useful purpose for the continued existence of the so-called ‘Provisional Army Council’
It seems RSF have something in common with the DUP.
If I sell some fake DVDs and wave a pistol about, doe that make me worth listening too as well?
No, Aquifer. But 8 points for trying.
A load of rubbish but at least they’re consistent.
Consistent and fairly accurate in my opinion.
hopefully theyll be more accurate when they next attack a peeler harry.
Disgusting and sickening comment from big jim doc. These people who attack and try to kill police in Northern Ireland will be defeated by the combined opposition and revulsion of the vast majority of the people on this island.
