Subject: RE: Catholic Priest clears his chest
Long winded reply dosen`t alter the fact that the British Nationalist Party were welcomed by the UDA when they came to Belfast, this is the equivalent of the KKK.
The facts are that from 1922 when Craigavon was given "A Protestant Parliament for a Protestant people", [direct quotation by Craigavon the first Prime Minister of N Ireland,] the Unionists were given free rein by the British to govern in whatever manner they choose, and they made sure that the Nationalist people were held down.

The City of Derry with a 75% Nationalist population were never in control until the Unionist were stood down in 1972, this was the case in all Nationalist areas, the biggest surprise is how the Nationalist people suffered in silence so long, until the Civil Rights Movement in 1968 gave these long suffering people a voice.
