Jump To Comment: 6 5 4 3 2 1300 rioters in W Belfast to welcome her royal malignancy.
The handshake between the British Queen and Sinn Fein leader Martin McGuinness is something significant even though most people in the North of Ireland have shrugged their shoulders and have only at the last minute really taken it under their notice because of the hype from the media. Both the British State and Sinn Fein wanted it to happen for their own reasons and were more than happy that it got the media blitz that it did.
Every commentator aware of the history has remarked on the sea-change that has taken place at this diamond jubilee visit compared to that during the Queen’s silver jubilee in 1977. At that time republicans demonstrated and rioted against her visit while today the hand of friendship has been extended. However beneath this difference the purpose of the visit has been exactly the same on both occasions although much more successful on this one.

..for many years...if you must take the shilling...get as close to the schilling as you can.
Many a happy voyage throught the San Andreas Vaults, watching the golden sparkle of our oceanic sovereigns...anti-aircraft division, we had to watch for the Austrian cheese-pirates, the terror of the Alpine coast at the times....I still live with the horror of the collateral damage to the Lucerne cheese arsenal.
Ever think of emigrating to join the Pope's Swiss Guards?
The British monarchy is still the same rotten institution of syrupy propaganda that masks the power of in-bred landed aristocrats, gluttonous arms dealers and corporate dictators. I'm a bit surprised at Sinn Fein being quite so openly hypocritical, but then again maybe not as the pursuit of a morsel of this power seems to be their only concern nowadays.
After making a record +£16 million profit from her unemployed subjects forced onto free labour workfare in the middle of a banker caused recession, the old battleaxe of the Saxe-Coburg Goethe dynasty is going into a Catholic church up north to 'heal wounds'. It'll be a good fit. One rotten, brain dead institution hanging on to some semblance of undead life by embracing another.
......and his 24th June 'No Welcome for British Queen' statement :
".... (Provisional) Sinn Féin opposes the proposed state visit of the Queen of England, Commander-in-Chief of the British armed forces until there is complete withdrawal of the British military and the British administration from Ireland . And until there is justice and truth for victims of collusion, no official welcome should be accorded to any officer of the British armed forces of any rank....."

Unless I'm reading it wrong (!) , it seems that Mr Doherty , for one , is not at all 'on script' with other members of the leadership of his party ?
Thanks,

Pearse Doherty says 'No Royals' whilst his Boss , Martin , says 'Yes, Please...' ?
