    One of the bravest characters of his generationj of Loyalist and Unionist politics.
    There will not be another like him.

    Rest in Peace.

    AMEN.

    His voice was truly one crying in the mendacious wilderness of Northern Ireland.

    It would now appear that the only solution to take this unfortunate process forward is to create some alliance of the SDLP and the UUP and others.

    IRA/Sinn Fein & the DUP will forever remain deadlocked.

    Which suits both these parties - for completely different reasons.

    The DUP can continue to trumpet “No Surrender”

    IRA/Sinn Fein will not have to bow the knee to Law & Order (PSNI)& can continue on their criminal rampages, hiding behind those released under the GFA - and the “on the runs” - they so dearly want to bring back into their criminal gangs.

    In the meantime they still have their stockpiles of AK 47s in spite of what Adams says (quote) “the guns are silent”.
    Unquote….

    In Dublin? Limerick? and anywhere they can turn a buck on drugs.

    “in Dublin? Limerick? and anywhere they can turn a buck on drugs.”
    you sound like a foreigner, who has no knowledge about the IRA.
    Actually The IRA drove away the drug pushers, and if a member of the IRA
    got involved in drugs, that would be the end for them.

    As regards David Ervine, his voice of wisdom gained from the mistakes of
    failed politics, will be missed.
    May he rest in peace.

    Actually The IRA drove away the drug pushers,
    Of course. What was it again. Direct Action against Drugs.

    “Direct Action Against Drugs”

    Direct = An active Unit of the IRA
    Action = Eliminate any “foreigner” threatening their monopoly.
    “Foreigner” = Non-member of the IRA.
    Drugs = Major source of IRA/Sinn Fein Income - to fund election of IRA/Sinn Fein candidates viz. Mary-Lou McDonald MEP; Martin Ferris etc…

    David Ervine had no illusions about Gerry Adams and his associates; who they were & what they stood for.

    He knew they were - and are - the leaders of the IRA and that their Agenda is to take over the country - all 32 counties - & install a Cuba-style racist dictatorship.

    Something Bertie & Dermot might reflect upon.

    In such an event, they will be history - if not “Brown Bread”.
