Sir, I wish to voice my outrage and disgust at the murders of the two RUC men in Lurgan on Monday. Unfortunately, this reversion to type by the IRA wasn't entirely unexpected. Now that its odious apologists are safely elected to both British and Irish parliaments, the IRA obviously feels no further need to cod us into believing that it is interested in pursuing a peace strategy. So it's business as usual.
I wonder how many of the constituents of Cavan-Monaghan will concern themselves with seeking an explanation from that charming former bank official whom they elected as their Dail representative as to where this action lies in his party's alleged quest for peace? - Yours, etc.,
Claremorris, Co Mayo.
