éirígí comments on policing debate A debate entitled `Policing - A Bridge Too Far For Republicans?' took place last Monday November 27th in the Conway Mill, West Belfast. éirígí is encouraged by this event coming as it does only a couple of weeks after a similar debate organised by the James Connolly debating society, also in West Belfast. éirígí hopes that these initiatives mark the beginning, however belated, of a community and Ireland-wide debate on the nature and type of policing needed in a new Ireland. |

Jump To Comment: 1 2 3 4 5Read the article and istened to the radio clip. It's an interesting piece and, and hopefully as you say, will contribute to a much needed and timely debate. It is very important that we look at the issue of policing in an all-island context, what with the Shell saga and the role of the cops in that etc.

So the SF front group nails its colours to the mast! Cant wait to see what the conspiracy theorists have to say about this one. Looks like eirigi are adopting the correct anti-imperialist position on this one - no support for any British police force in Ireland. Interesting angle on the creation of some form of community-based system of crime-prevention as oppossed to big brother policing.
Well done. I have to say that this reflects my personal position. There is no way that we can accept MI5/PSNI. For what died the sons & daughters of Roisín? Was it greed? Was it British rule?
I think that it's time that all shades of Republicanism even members of Sinn Fein, got together to stop what has become a monumental sell out by Adams And McGuinness.
In their headlong rush to become a part of a Paisley-led government, the leadership of Sinn Fein seem prepared to accept any humiliating demands put on them by Paisley who is revelling in bringing Republicanism to it's knees.
It's time that Republicans, including those in Sinn Fein with any iota of self respect left, to kick the legs from under a leadership that has demeaned all that countless Volunteers have died for.
Stand up, be counted and give us our respect back....Please.
Below is a letter from TC (former 6 County Organiser for Sinn Féin) published in the Irish News during the week about SF leadership claims that he was plotting against them. Is there no level to which the leadership of that party will stoop to supress debate about policing.
