The claims made by English prime minister Gordon Brown in Washington that “Ireland is now at peace” are bizarre given the revelation that the Republican threat to English rule was, on the same day, reclassified as “severe”.

The claims made by English prime minister Gordon Brown in Washington that “Ireland is now at peace” are bizarre given the revelation that the Republican threat to English rule was, on the same day, reclassified as “severe”.

A spokesperson for Republican Sinn Féin said:

“Whilst Gerry Adams and his cheerleaders were quick to make ludicrous claims that the opening of an MI5 centre in Hollywood, Co. Down, constituted a positive move towards the introduction of accountable civic policing, it has now been admitted that at least 15% of MI5's resources are dedicated towards targeting those with whom Mr. Adams disagrees. The RUC, of course, retain executive powers in enforcing the will of MI5.

“Following repeated attempts by Adams to label Republican resistance to English rule as criminally-inspired, it has emerged that MI5 are dedicating ever more resources in their war against the Irish people.

“The true criminals are those who support the enemy in their attempts to subvert the expressed will of the Irish people for the freedom and unity of the Irish Nation.”
