    I get the feeling that some will think they have won a war if Gerry resigns. :pac:

    Sinn Fein will crumble, a commanding voice will boom from the heavens and just like the curtain splitting in the temple when Jesus died the north will break off from the rest of Ireland and float out to sea

    McGuinness had 19% in opinion polls at his peak, got 13.7% in the election.

    People had to make sure the dragon was stopped so Higgins took some of McGuinness's support, like he took votes from everyone else who couldn't bate yer man.

    SF is not interested and never was interested in hollow support in fairness to them. I kind of admire their honesty in not succumbing to the PR whitewash brush wielded by the likes of Terry Prone or Saatchi and Saatchi.
    Gerry will go on his own terms and those of his party.

    Mary Lou and Pearse who are untainted by the Troubles nonetheless are propping up a lame duck leader.

    Pearse has removed Anglo Irish tapes from the Sinn Fein arsenal to use as a smokescreen to protect Adams in the last few days.

    Mary Lou, is remaining quiet in the political trenches, perhaps waiting for her moment.?

    Have either Mary Lou or Pearse any credibility propping up a leader whose days are numbered ?

    More food for thought!








    5 day old food for thought now.

    Something tells me Del and d1stant et al won't be getting their Christmas wish any time soon.
    In the meantime ... 'rabble rabble rabble'.

    Good Evening Noidin, Welcome back
    Surely this must have been a source of embarrassment for SF when a splinter group of the republican brotherhood carried out such an abhorrent act in your Leader's constituency.

    .....afaik it wasn't carried out by dissidents, but criminals from south armagh. Secondly, why would SF be embarrassed about something they had nothing to do with?

    My recall is they fled to South Armagh , but SF are talking about having no arms, someone in the republican brotherhood obviously had on the night in question. Coincidences?

    Fred, just like Gerry supposedly being in the IRA, you need 'proof' to be going around blaming people. I know it might be a new concept to some new to democracy, but it is one of the basic tenets.

    Since when do you have to be a Republican to have a gun? Them days are long long gone.

    SF never had arms, the RA had. The RA - as recognised by the decommissioning body - have destroyed their arsenal, and the army council has disbanded.

    Perhaps! I am merely asking questions!

    Though I do not wish to cause offence in what is merely a debate, so I will withdraw my initial question.

    Yeah but that's turning out to be bullsh/t as well.

    You are not very well versed in what you are talking about...a few lines in, note the words 'dissident republicans' who would court martial and shoot the current SF leadership if they could get their way.
    But generalise away, you seem to be good at it.

    IRA 'lied to Government on decommissioning'


    The Provisional IRA "pulled the wool" over British and Irish government eyes in its 2005 commitment that it had "put beyond use" all its store of the Semtex explosive, according to senior garda sources.


    At the time, the senior IRA figure liaising with the Independent International Committee on Decommissioning (IICD) gave an assurance that all the IRA's Semtex "was put beyond use".

    There's the important parts of that report.
