shold be a good republican speech coming from a british mp, collecting a british paycheck, after signing away political status for replican pows, agreeing to the principle of unionist consent, endorsing the removal of articles 2 and 3, attempting to be part of the political system that he helped try to destroy for the last 30 years, handing over weapons that people went to jail for bringing in..........etc etc etc

it was sealed in bunkers and other hard to see places with devices of the highest sophistication to guard against tampering at that time available to the two parties to the agreement Ireland and the UK and overseen by both observers to wit, "us" and the canadians.
That is to say, not many people know where they are,
and at no stage was photographic evidence practical.

Ask willie o'dea where they are. doubt he knows.
then ask big swinging mickey mc dowell where they are. doubt he knows either. But one of you pleasant pheasant pluckers goes near them, and we'll know.
Thing is with this sort of thing, you never trust professional politicians, they're too criminal by nature.

That arsenal is however currently "beyond practical use" but the politicians of all types still find "political use" for its existence.

no one knows what the "leadership" has done with the weapons,,,,, we are just supposed to blindly trust them. like someone posted, not too many people know where the weapons are stored or "put beyond use". fact remains that they turned in weapons and have crossed so many of their original ideals, that they are more SDLP than the SDLP and i remember the days sinn fein called them "the stoop down low party", funny how things have changed.
