Forget Sinn Féin and IRA, Paisley will tell Ahern

Ian Paisley meets Taoiseach Bertie Ahern today to tell him that politics in the North have to move on without the IRA and Sinn Féin.

The talks take place as the Irish and British governments await the IRA’s response to Gerry Adams’ call for them to commit to democratic means and declare the armed struggle over.
