Gary Powell: How the Met went after Grimes – but turned a blind eye to incitement to murder the Prime Minister

The Government is turning a blind eye to self-evident politicisation – a miserable milestone in the Conservative Party’s masochistic colonisation by woke ideology.

Neave. Berry. Gow. Three Tory MPs murdered by the IRA – an apologist for which Johnson has just sent to the Lords

In Claire Fox, the Prime Minister has elevated to the peerage someone whose former party defended terrorism.

Jonathan Caine: It’s time for Sinn Fein to act decisively and leave the IRA behind

Garvan Walshe: Sinn Fein say they want to reassure Unionists. Good luck with that.

As long as their activists call them “colonialists” and candidates glorify the IRA, the idea is as convincing as a Hannukah greeting from Jeremy Corbyn.

Mark Francois: Johnson must keep his promises on Northern Ireland veterans – not sacrifice them to satisfy Sinn Fein

The Prime Minister pledged to defend those who defended us. I believe him.

Neil O’Brien: Corbyn’s long and infamous record of retreat, appeasement and support for terror

By Neil O Brien | 2 December 2019 | 121 comments

Also: Democratic Unionists attack Corbyn for backing IRA as it murdered judges; and growing concern of risk of loyalist violence against backstop.

By Henry Hill | 26 September 2019 | 31 comments

The Northern Ireland Office deserves Johnson’s serious attention

He must not repeat May’s mistake of using it as a holding pen for loyal colleagues. From combating terrorism to countering nationalist spin, the role is crucial.

By Henry Hill | 26 August 2019 | 80 comments

Henry Hill: Wallace rejects amnesty for Ulster veterans, but wants inquiries restrained

Also: Labour’s civil war on Scottish independence deepens; Scottish Government pays Salmond half a million pounds in damages; and more.
