"...May 1981 or gave them money for their activities was living in Dreamland or enchanted by stories of a past long gone and hadn't their head properly screwed on at all. They're only a nuisance and most of the Provos are no different.."
Today,some naive fools think that Sinn Fein's and the IRA's ringleaders and their fellow travellers of the past can be rescued from prescient obscurity and peace be enthroned for ever.
Sadly, history moves ever onward and the former leaders both groups are doomed to obscurity by media fiat and changing social conditions and the economic facts of life.
Why,so?
The only constant is change. Time and life move ever onward and leave burning wrecks behind. In England,the Liberal Democrats were the first to be tried in the heat of internal wrangling and now it is the Conservative rich-boys who have torn their party to shreds. In the 1980's, Labour tore itself to shreds until the NEC expelled the Trotskyites around the Liverpool pamphleteers.
