No more word games: let the people decide, says Sinn Féin
After Gerry Adams’ latest attempt to clarify the IRA’s paramilitary activities received a mixed reaction, Sinn Féin chairman Mitchell McLaughlin said there are already enough statements and the Assembly elections now needed to go ahead.
Differing interpretations of the latest statement caused tensions between the Governments, with officials in Dublin reportedly satisfied with the latest concessions. But according to Government sources, it was understood the British Government needed further clarification on specifics as there remained elements of doubt.
