IRA go GUBU

9 March 2005


So just how out of touch with reality are the IRA
I mean they are often condemned for their vigilante style justice, what with the knee-cappings and punishment attacks etc. So, now that they are trying to improve PR with the “local” community, what do they do? Say that they have conducted an investigation, and are willing to shoot those responsible for the murder of Mr. McCartney.

“THE IRA’s offer to shoot the murderers of Robert McCartney shows the Provisional movement is in “political freefall” and in deep crisis, a clearly astonished Justice Minister Michael McDowell said last night.”

Personally I heard their offer mentioned on the news and burst out laughing.

Definition of GUBU.
