"Sinn Fein are not the British puppets in power, they are in fact distrusted and disliked by the English - apart from the very unelectable left wing elements of the English system."

I'm not so sure about this - Mo Mowlem certainly didn't distrust or dislike SF and I'm not sure everyone in England thinks like this (speaking as a member of the unelectable left). Truth is, here in England we've been on the arse end of a 30-year propaganda campaign and a large number of people don't see the other side of the story (and until I came here and met people like Divis neither did I).

What happened in the North was a war; I've known people from both sides of the conflict and there is no doubt that's how it was viewed. Building peace means talking to people whom you might not ordinarily have wanted to even look at, but there it is.

Comrac: Take some heart that I think your story is beginning to get through to the British public at large. Recent films and articles in the papers are beginning to tell a side of the story people have not been able to engage with before, and this process will continue as the years progress. Now is the time for a peaceful route to a united Ireland, best of luck in achieving it. It will happen eventually.
