Im proud to call a few blanket men and women as friends, I've heard stories that would turn your hair grey. They suffer in silence to this day. Bless them. There must be justice for this tragic period, it was a war crime, nothing less. It's easy to taunt a lion in a cage but try doing it when the lion is free.

I’m English (albeit with some Irish ancestry like many English people). In 1981 I was 17, and - if I’m honest - until hearing about the blanket protests and hunger strikes, I had blindly swallowed the British govt line that IRA volunteers and POWs were criminals and/or psychopaths. But after seeing how these courageous young men were prepared to die an awful death for their beliefs, I began to question the official / Thatcher version of events. Especially since the special category status they were asking (and dying) for had been in place already since internment, until Merlyn Rees of the *Labour* govt abolished it in 1976 as part of the ill-fated ‘Ulsterisation’ policy. I enrolled on a local evening class about Irish history to find out more - and was amazed to learn of British colonial interference in Ireland going back 800 years. At the time, the area of London I lived in had a sizeable Irish community. I had a couple of Irish friends at school, but this class was brilliant, a mixture of Brits like myself, and some Irish men & women wanting to learn about their country’s history. Ever since then I’ve tried to educate myself about Irish history and the British in Ireland, especially the period after WW2. Seems to me that Sinn Fein’s allegations during the 1969-1998 war (aka ‘the Troubles’) have subsequently been confirmed, even though they may have seemed implausible at the time to people outside the North. Collusion between the RUC, UDR, British army and Loyalist paramilitaries; the shoot-to-kill policy; selective assassination; military pre-planning before the Bloody Sunday & Ballymurphy massacres (and the subsequent Widgery report whitewash); MRF plain-clothes murder gangs driving around randomly shooting civilians… the list goes on. And I bet there’s still more to emerge. An ignoble period of British colonial rule, but happily one that looks to be drawing to a close peacefully, as Sinn Fein’s continued political successes (both north and south of the border) suggest that a united Ireland may become a reality in the next couple of decades (especially after Brexit). And is it not the case that the Republican ‘ballot box & Armalite’ strategy began to be developed after the successful by-election campaign that saw Bobby Sands’ electiion as a Member of Parliament? I never thought I would live to see Ian Paisley and Martin McGuinness cooperating and having a laugh together… or McGuinness shaking hands with the Queen… incredible! But true 😊

when I die, I will be greeted at the gates of heaven by not only my family and my wife, I will also be greeted by the victims of ballymurphy, derry, and the hungerstrikers. I was supposed to be the next hunger striker after Michael Devine, but halfway through my hungerstrike, it was called off, saying that the five demands were met. by this point, I was lying in a hospital bed; too weak to move. I was shown the document saying that the hunger strike is over. I was so weak, they had to feed me through a tube. I was released from HM prison maze four months before the prison escape. I was locked up for 10 years for a crime I did not commit.

ScoJoe19 as do it. I was a member of the PIRA, but I was arrested just because I went to the aid of a wounded comrade while I was wearing my balaclava. we were in a shootout with the SAS, when a bullet struck a civilian in the shoulder. I bravely went to his aid and I took a bullet to the leg. I managed to get the civilian to safety, but I was forced to surrender due to blood loss. I would have capped myself, but I had used up all the ammo for my guns.

Says he was the 11th hunger striker, and in my eyes to lie about that makes you the lowest of the low. I have came across him on a few Republican documentary's so it's not a 1 time thing.. He uses words like "mom" instead of mum or Ma.. And "capped" instead of shot.... If that's not an American I'm a Loyalist .... Just giving you the heads up people!!
