Garret FitzGerald 'feared Dublin bomb' during revolt against Anglo-Irish Agreement

The Irish Government feared a "big" loyalist bomb in Dublin during a bitter unionist revolt against the Anglo-Irish Agreement, then Taoiseach Garret FitzGerald said.

In a meeting with then Northern Ireland Secretary of State Tom King just three months after the historic accord, Mr FitzGerald (pictured) said people in Dublin were as worried as people north of the border.
