As far as I’m concerned, the old Sinn Fein have blood on their hands and until the likes of people like McGuinness and Adams are long gone, we, the people of Britain and Ireland have just cause in looking towards the INP with suspicion but then we should also think on, Sin Fein is now a popular, peaceful and recognized political party and the reason for this is because they shook hands with Blair back in the late 90s and agreed to a deal which immediately brought a halt to a 30 year war.
Just because Corbyn supports a united Ireland, doesn’t mean he supports or ever did support the IRA.

They're actually the 3rd largest party in Ireland and have really good and different policies but Gerry Adams being in charge still is holding them back, if his second in command took over i think their popularity would rocket here. She's a great speaker and we need a change from the other two parties who may as well be the same one
