Are we to believe that Sinn Fein went from a cover for terrorism to reputable political force overnight?

Working for peace does not involve only supporting and talking to one side, attending and speaking at the rallies and funerals of only one side and talking at Troops Out meetings and rallies.
He had to find some justification for all this, so 'I was in peace talks' was the weak excuse. It's laughable.
The people in peace talks had the authority, expertise and experience to do so, they didn't need a back bencher with anti British sentiments to do it for them.
The ‘digging’, which didn’t have to go very deep, has clearly shown that he was an IRA supporter. Many people accept that. Apart from my own knowledge there is plenty out there in big neon lights pointing directly at it if you didn't just see every single word and article as all lies and some evil conspiracy against him. It just isn't feasible.
But really Kizzy, there is no point in any further discussion. I know what I know and I’m not going to say anything different as I would be lying and you have your own views which you are entitled to.

Who else was talking... Overtly talking and trying to facilitate change and peace from within the establishment?
There was a dialogue but who was involved at that time, is Corbyn the fall guy as he openly campaigned for what we now know to be injustices to be recognised..
Here he is discussing Ireland in an interview. (from 6.35)
Is entirely feasible there is a conspiracy against him, that is being ramped up to max at the moment, it appears to me there is one slur after another in the hope that without analysis the accusations are acknowledged... That is not happening any longer which is why there is a constant change of tack in the vain hope that public confidence will be shaken in this man.
It appears however the contrary is happening in the main as nobody has the assurances they need that there has been sufficient evidence provided for any of these suggested betrayals.
I don't have views, I have researched.. I see the campaigns of violence on both sides, the innocents involved and the injustice, as well as the proposals for repartition that were frankly murderous.
