He talks about injustices in Ireland going back 100 years and beyond. Move on, Jeremy dear, this is the 21st century, and the murderers causing massive mayhem and death in Ireland in this day and age were your friends the IRA.
What he's doing here is trying to justify the IRA's violence but its a poor excuse that innocent people were made to suffer today because of what the British did over 100 years ago.

And of course once again he slips in his self praise of being a vital player in the peace process in the early days. That's pretty impressive for a lowly backbencher in opposition who actually voted against the first peace treaty in the 80's, the Anglo - Irish Agreement, because it didn't make provisions for what the IRA wanted, a United Ireland. The actual Peace Process occurred in the 90’s.. Lol.

What you are attempting to disprove isn't working, because it isn't the truth.

Just give it up now please Kizzy. We are just going round and round in circles and its pointless. We'll just have to agree to disagree once and for all.

He and his sidekicks chose who to support and befriend in the troubles, all well and good, but my way of looking at it is if you choose the side that is bombing, maiming and killing your fellow countrymen then you are a traitor.
As to him helping the peace movement, dream on.
