WLD, I can and do respect Observers views, but not his right to make up lies about me.
Shamelessly, he has ignored my complaint and just made up more!
Observe this Observer.
I have never denied gerrymandaring, though I would say that the British turned a blind eye rather than supported it. It had no consequence here.
I do accept that the invasion and occupation was "morally wrong and unjustified" by modern standards, but not by the standards of those medieval times. All countries did it and worse in those far off centuries. Move on.
USA stole a hundred irelands just in the 19th Century which is why I will take no historical moralising from Big Mick!
I recognise and celebrate with you the achievements of the Nationalist people. I am just saddened that, but for the bloody carnage of the IRA terror campaign, it could have been achieved earlier and the people spared years of misery and grief.
