    They are accepted by the Republican community. That's enough. Who do you think you are telling people what's acceptable and what's not at the ballot box? It's not the 1950s.

    Why bother turning up to the 'good relations' committee at all then if Unionists want to pick and choose who they want to have good relations with?

    Why go into Government with them if this is the case? Both the DUP and UU share power with them and they represent the vast majority of Unionists.

    The vast majority of unionists see no difference between SF and IRA or IRA and SF.



    Yeah right pal, was dictionary Dave who said loyalist paramilitaries could tell you the decor inside unionist politicos homes, have yet to hear of the IRA knowing similar info re SF politicos houses.
