michaelhenry,
the type of snakes that Adam's attracts would be outside St Patrick's remit, like their Lord and Master too slippery by half.

Fionnuala-

There are still a few snakes about-
some are taking down their barracks
whilst others like their orange bretheran want to march unarmed on roads where they are not wanted

There is a march in belfast centre in may
for the brit army who made it back from afganistan- could be the same time as queenie comes to dublin

Notice that there is no more home-comming parades from IRAq- the brits want to keep another defeat quiet

St patrick drove out the snakes in the past- St Gerry and pals will clean Ireland once more

Maybe the Loyalist people are facing the harsh reality of what the Nationalist people had to endure for so many years.
The working class people on both sides of the divide are having to deal with a government which is seriously out of step with peoples' wants and needs.
The people are now being represented by a bunch of middle-aged, middle-class, tiresome individuals who would rather fritter away peoples' money on hosting 'cultural evenings' than address bread and butter issues.

Must agree with Marty though, when the puppet masters decide that the killers should be unleashed again, they will be.

michaelhenry, I thought your leader had got rid of all the Brits in Ireland?
Don't tell us some have sneaked back in.

In his exciusive interview with onh
[ another one ] dr [ of what ] john
coulter was told that onh would
continue its campaign of violence untill power-sharing at stormont was smashed- continue- when did they start

onh say they are not political- but they are not militant either which begs the question- what are they- it is chilling that in another " interview with a onh dissident " the good dr was to scared to ask them why they had killed no brit army or police yet

some want to construct fear to prove that they know what is going on- these lie's never worked during the war- they are not going to work now.

Regardless of Dr. Coulter's wise words regarding Loyalist gangs and the possibility of them returning to War.

Republicans are only too aware that the idealogy of these gangs are in essence secterian and racist. Therefore, even though the ordinary Nationalist in the North should remain concerned these people are only loyal to the pound coin.

What's sad is that the cuts will undoubtably increase the prospect of a new inpetus for another armed campaign from Loyalists and of course Republicans. As working-class areas across the Six Counties feel the pinch!

I'm pleased that at least someone is articulating working-class Loyalist feelings and thanks to Dr. Coulter for his input.

I think these elements within loyalism dont or never had a political plan for this place other than the outdated loyality to queen and country, and even this loyality is dubious,given the fact that they will go full tilt at her majesty,s forces if and when they feel that the taigs may be gaining ground,the loyal orders used these thugs at Drumcree and other flashpoints to push for their outdated priviliges to be maintained, the militant factions then claimed credibility among their communities as defenders of the cause,while engaging in the secterian murder of their fellow countrymen and women at the behest of the SB/FRU/MI5 I contend that the majority of these people are thugs and gangsters/drug dealers,hence the failure by these groups to politicise, put simply they never really needed to ,they take their lead from the faceless men in suits from Paisley,s DUP to Whitehall,at present their activities are mainly confined to their own turf and the disputes among themselves is as stated turf wars amongst themselves, I believe they have been allowed to remain in existance purely because those powers that be may need them again to carry out more dirty work on behalf of her majesty,s goverment,otherwise they would have been confined to the dustbins where they belong.
