It matters not if Adams is a member of the IRA

I WAS completely underwhelmed by Matt Cooper’s piece on December 17.

Neither all the queen’s horses nor all the queen’s men, exhausting what Gladstone called “the resources of civilisation” could prove Gerry Adams’s membership of the IRA.

So who am I, or Mr Cooper, to doubt his word? I don’t think it matters now, nor ever has, to those who vote Sinn Féin.
