    Adams: SF now fully supports police and courts

    RTE is tonight reporting an interesting interview to be published on Thursday in this week's An Phoblacht magazine in which Gerry Adams makes the following statements:

    -Sinn Féin is now fully supporting the police and the criminal justice system and will continue to do so.
    -Sinn Féin ministers will sign the ministerial pledge supporting the PSNI.
    -Sinn Féin will take its seats on the policing board and the district policing partnerships.
    -the IRA's war is over
    -there is no reason or excuse for armed actions

    The interview is reported here:

    He also said it at the Ard Fheis, and at the Extraordinary Ard Fheis, during the assembly election campaign, maybe you weren't listening Barry.
