Ireland Report Confirms What Dogs On The Street Have Always Known: The IRA Still Exists

wsm.ie: Report Confirms What Dogs On The Street Have Always
Known: The IRA Still Exists (a-infos-en@ainfos.ca)


'shocking' report which was revealed yesterday confirmed to us what we already knew: the 
IRA still exists. ---- The report, which took about two months to compile was issued by 
Secretary of State, Theresa Villiers. Villiers, who is so far out of touch with those whom 
she is meant to govern needed to assemble a team to tell her what the ordinary person 
already knew. ---- It was revealed in the report that the IRA is now committed to peaceful 
and political means, and that its Army Council oversees both the IRA and Sinn Féin - a 
claim which Sinn Féin naturally denies, very much toeing the same line as their glorious 
leader Gerry. ---- The waste of resource - or report - was called for after the death of 
Kevin McGuigan, a death which sparked rumours of an IRA revenge shooting for the murder of 
Gerard 'Jock' Davison two months previous.

This allegation of an IRA shooting conveniently coincided with the heat being turned up on 
First Minister, Peter Robinson, when allegations started to surface of £7m in an offshore 
account from the sale of Nama's northern portfolio, Project Eagle.

In Stormont's usual style of 'crisis politics' which it seems to thrive on and cannot 
exist without, the UUP pulled its only member out of the executive and all DUP ministers 
except for Arlene Foster who was appointed as acting First Minister "stepped aside".

In order to keep the executive going the DUP adopted a policy of "in-out" ministers, in 
which ministers would resign only to be reappointed a little a later. Since the 10th of 
September some DUP ministers resigned and reassumed office more than 20 times - not that 
any of us noticed anyway or that whatever changes took place up on the Hill had any effect 
on us.

More talks are now to continue in Stormont which will focus on paramilitary activity. It 
is believed that this time wasted on debating is needed before they can get on with 
implementing further austerity and slashing budgets to pieces.
