UNIONISTS are, as expected, full of condemnation of Sinn Fein for agreeing to enter negotiations for peace in Northern Ireland.
With the brutal murder of a protestant teenager because she was friendly with a Catholic boy, it is obvious that Sinn Fein could have used this to their advantage.
They did not, which should show they are sincere, especially to a man who wears a dog collar as a representative of the Prince of Peace.
As I stated in my last letter only a declaration of a national emergency will put an end to their religious bigotry.
We now have a government that is sincere in its desire for peace in Northern Ireland, but I am afraid they are fighting a losing battle.
