Sir, – Given the persistent push via media outlets and political rhetoric that we should remember great strides and advances such as the IRA ceasefire of 1994, I trust we will continue to apply equal clarity and insistence when we reach other milestone dates subsequent to that time.
Dates such as the day, not even a year and a half later, when the IRA broke this ceasefire with the London Docklands bombing, then later the Manchester bombing and the murder of Garda Jerry McCabe during an armed robbery.
The people in question, still unrepentant to this day for their actions, had not “gone away, you know”. – Yours, etc,
JUSTIN DEEGAN.
