Pipedreams. The provies will not disarm. They will procrastinate and waste time, bluff de Chastelain and everyone else, scream about the removal of the "Royal" Ulster Constabulary, yet continue to attend the "Royal Victoria" Hospital for treatment. They will gladly attend the Motor Show in the "King's" Hall. They will bleat and whinge about the need to protect the Nationalist People from the 130,00 guns in the hands of the Protestant People - the majority of which are farmers' shotguns, none of which have ever been proved to have been used in terrorist attacke. The law of averages would suggest that over 30 years, some at least would have turned up in investi=gations. None have. They say that they never signed up to anything. Quite correct, but why is it that this point is only being made now that theoir stooges in Sinn Féin are under pressure having been successfully ambushed by Trimble, who for once did the clever thing ! Now that the provies have the ball in their court, they haven't a clue as to what to do with it. They won't kick it into the Unionists' court! That would be "surrendering". "So long as we've got the ball, we can control the game." How nauseatinlgy childish can you get ? Trevor
