Jump To Comment: 2 1.....a picket will be held this Friday October 13th from 1pm to 3pm at the GPO in Dublin .
We do not expext Gerry or Martin to be present , as Tony and Ian would not approve .

Despite the announcement by Mr. Adams who is in Scotland with Paisley (Minister for the Orange Silly Walks Party), and promoting the miraculous conversion of the RUC/PSNI from a force with an appalling human rights record into a suddenly (in the flick of a name change) a respectable and acceptable police force; we are presented above with a reality-check report of the continuing harassment and the unlawful detention of Irish people by the PSNI who are hell bent on preventing Irish people from attending meetings.
If Mr. Adams finds the PSNI an acceptable police force all of a sudden (well for this week anyway), then why is it that ÓSF are continuously highlighting the brutal tactics and harassment that they suffer at the hands of the PSNI? It is indeed a sick joke!
I have no doubt that the RPAG will continue with their efforts in highlighting the plight of the Maghaberry prisoners until the prisoners have been granted their five basic demands and they will not be deterred in their efforts by any action of the PSNI.
