1. Comment on Why the Tories are constitutionally all at sea in Scotland
   on 6 January 2012 at 11:41 am

   Tories couldn’t care less about scotlands people
   The only interest in preserving the union is because its looks good,
   and serves grandstanding on the world stage:

   “we’re very proud of the UK, GB, blah blah blah ”

   privately it costs english taxpayers a fortune to maintain
   but Tory MP’s and shire counties folk can afford it.

   the mentality is exactly the same as with India,
   the raj, colonialism, europhobia etc
   divide and rule as diane abbot says , oops PC brigade alert !

   These posh tory bastards must be defeated , but how ?

   on 4 January 2012 at 7:22 pm

   as long as commentator Fionnuala O’Connor,
   and historian and Irish News journalist Brian Feeney
   are around to analyse and offer wisdom we’ll be fine.

   keano,
   “All the main parties need to address this issue
   much more diligently than has been the case up until now.

   good, and with respect when they don’t , SF or otherwise
   others will step in , like Jim allister
   But its just bad politics to moan at that,
   when the door has been left ajar.

   derrydave,
   I think it was Richard III
   “To whom much is given, much is expected”

   Ms McArdle has been given a high-powered well paid job.

   To meet with ann travers, and face the music is leadership.
   Within the proper setting, an enormous amount can be achieved,
   in terms of reconciliation and understanding.

   To face your accuser, lower yourself and take the hurt/anger is a sincere act of contrition;
   both parties feel released from their burdens.

   That’s the beauty of meeting with open hearts and minds
   A space is opened where respect and even admiration can take place ,
   but especially love

   Ann, that’s completely reasonable and essential for you.
   A good and trusted mediator is one possible avenue.

   I remember vividly watching “Facing the Truth” in 2006
   when archbishop desmond tutu brought together
   victims and perpetrators.
   couldn’t help but feel how powerful, intense yet healing and liberating that was for some.

    I’m disappointed that Ms McArdle snubbed the HET.
    the HET really ought to have powers to compel attendance.
    Ann, she should meet with you ,on agreed terms at least; if that’s what you desire.
