Attack by Irish terrorists 'a strong possibility' warns Theresa May
The threat level to Great Britain from Irish-related terrorism has gone from moderate to substantial, meaning an attack is a ''strong possibility'', the Home Secretary Theresa May has announced..

"This is the first time we have published the Irish-related threat assessment to Great Britain. This is in the interests of transparency and to encourage people to remain vigilant.

Victory Gin !!

...so if the mussies don't get us the Irish will.

So lets just put the muzzies, the fuzzies and the Irish together and cut the anchor so they float out to sea.

Terrorism is so yesterday since 9/11. Apart from out East where things have never been so good.

Nah don't think so. If they did decide to do so I'm sure that a bunch of 'loyalist' sharpshooters would curb their enthusiasm.

Please let's not go there again.

IMHO the real danger is that they've got access to proper explosives and proper firearms and can share it with those terrorists who are prepared to blow themselves up rather than make warning phone calls.

The biggest mistake was to have the PIRA disarm as they would have had them in check.

They do not have the resources to mount a campaign but this mob are becoming aggresive towards the old republican guard that can do nothing to stop them now.

Surely the PIRA have a few 'tools' stashed away for a rainy day? I thought they said they had (only) put their weapons "beyond use"?

With perfect timing the mupps have done MI5 a good turn, by strengthening their case to resist spending cuts and staff reductions etc.

Talk about kneecapping yourself in the foot.

That is what it is all about. I doubt if there is any proper evidence of anything going on whatsoever. The ConDems are just as bad as nuLieBore.

Nothing, all gone.

PIRA who served through the troubles, spent time in the prisons and went through the peace process are now being abused in the streets for 'selling out'. If you said that 10 years ago...
