    Quote from RTE Twitter account :pac: Love to know what they said.
    A tweet about Gerry Adams sent earlier in this hour from this account does not represent the views of RTÉ & has been deleted

    Presumably it had something to do with the whole run-around of everyone knowing that Gerry was in the Balaclava Irregulars (I dunno, can I say it on boards?) but he weirdly denies it; so legally you are not allowed print or say it on national media. :pac:

    Its on the RTE site that he has denied he was in the IRA. Theres even a video of him denying it on the RTE site so i doubt its illegal to say it.

    look at the lower left

    Thats why i didnt think it was to do with that.

    I think it was something like this

    "Gerry Adams unclear on whether he will lead SF, we all know he cant"


    I think that was it, maybe Im wrong, thats the only tweet about him I remember

    he was asked in a live interview whether he would them in the Dail. He said they'd all have to have a chat about it. Sounded a bit weak/vague. Surely they should have these things worked out in advance. There'll be a lot of them looking for top billing, C O'Caoilain might feel a bit put upon; Mary Lou (if elected) will be giving her usual Lady Muck act; Adams will be there trying to look all world leader-type, leading a small marginal party.
