If the British government is finally going to tell the truth about Bloody Sunday - and it's a big if - then let's have the truth about the New Lodge massacre. People survived that day, the families and friends of those who were killed, they have the right to grieve and truth helps survivors to grieve. Let there be no limits imposed on grief or on truth. Let there be no British or unionist grief or truth made more important than others.
Gerry Kelly speaking last week on the New Lodge Massacre of 26 years ago.
Two payments totalling more than £500,000 for the benefit of Mr Charles Haughey were written off by Dunnes Stores five years ago, the tribunal was told yesterday. Mr Patrick O'Donoghue, a company director and sectretary, said the 1987 payments - the first to Tripleplan Ltd for £282,500 sterling (£309,220.29) and his second to Mr John Furze for £205,000 - had been ``fully provided for'' in Dunnes Accounts.

He accused me of going to the revenue and threatened me. He said he was on his way out to kick every fucking bone in my body and to break every bone in my body and to kick the shite out of me and that he wouldn't leave a roof over my head.

The British authorities initiated and subsequently assisted in and procured the deportation of Mullen by unlawful means, in circumstances in which there were specific extradition facilities between this country and Zimbabwe. In so acting they were not only encouraging unlawful conduct in Zimbabwe, but they were also acting in breach of public international law.
British judge after the release of the last republican held in an English jail, Nick Mullen last week on appeal.
Lord Mayhew has a cheek lecturing Mo Mowlam on her responsibilities as secretary of state. When he held the office he managed to throw away the opportunity for peace. His failure of nerve and lack of political judgement was a significant factor in the collapse of the first IRA ceasefire. Having failed to deliver peace himself, he has now joined the long list of individuals who are determined to destroy this present opportunity too.
Irish News editorial, Friday 5 February.
I believe Apple phased all of this in bit by bit. People up there in the plant are totally frustrated. This is a situation where work is being taken away for money. Everything is resolved in Wall Street and over in America. They don't care about the people over here. They got the workforce in Hollyhill to sort out the iMac problems and, when it was sorted out they shipped the computers out.
