Republicans need to atone for their crimes
The peace process in the North has been built primarily on trust. Without trust, and the establishment of a common ground, there would have been no peace process. Mr Morrison quotes an IRA volunteer as having said that “trust is a two-way street,” and yet displays a singular disinterest in what the concept of trust involves.
For trust to emerge from a conflict situation it is necessary that both sides recognise and come to terms with the wrongs they have committed.
