I don't believe in these type of things. Writers need to be against courts and governments having power that restricts the free flow of information. To me it is inimical to press freedom.
I was struggling to recognise you, I was looking for the blue doc martins and skinhead lol. Nice photo.
Yes Gerry is a true gent in every sense. He worked for a local community outfit in Lurgan back in the early 90s and honestly I can't say I met anyone more genuinely decent.
Former IRA volunteer and ex-prisoner, spent 18 years in Long Kesh, 4 years on the blanket and no-wash/no work protests which led to the hunger strikes of the 80s. Completed PhD at Queens upon release from prison. Left the Republican Movement at the endorsement of the Good Friday Agreement, and went on to become a journalist. Co-founder of The Blanket, an online magazine that critically analyzed the Irish peace process. Lead researcher for the Belfast Project, an oral history of the Troubles.
And , they are still hounding Marian.
