SF slammed over bomb ‘hypocrisy’

ARLENE Foster has rubbished republican attempts to differentiate IRA attacks on Manchester from the suicide bomb outrage. She contrasted the condemnation of the atrocity from Michelle O’neill with her attendance at a recent commemoration for eight IRA men shot dead by the SAS as they tried to blow up a police station. The DUP chief said: “Then you have to reflect on the fact that only a few weeks ago she was in Loughgall commemorating those who were going out to murder. “I think that’s where the hypocrisy lies in all of this.” On Thursday, Sinn Fein MEP Matt Carthy said those levelling criticism at his party were playing “political games”.
