McGuinness 'not going to make an issue' of Tebbit comments
Northern Ireland Deputy First Minister and ex-IRA commander Martin McGuinness has rebuked Norman Tebbit for saying he hopes he is shot in the back for attending a State banquet at the invitation of the Queen.
Mr McGuinness said the reaction of the former Conservative chairman to his historic visit to the Queen’s official residence and private home at Windsor was “not fitting” for someone who holds high political office.
