British Monarchs visit is a violation of Irish Sovereignty.


32 County Sovereignty Movement



The announcement that the British Monarch is to pay a state visit to the Twenty Six Counties represents the final chapter in the current process of legitimising partition. Contrary to the establishments view the visit does not represent a gesture in friendly relations between two neighbouring states but rather a confirmation by both states that British sovereignty over the Six Counties is absolute. The Irish are in their place.

There are those who will predictably welcome this visit; others will feign indifference to avoid addressing their own complicity in bringing this final chapter to a close. Their inability to articulate a coherent, principled argument against what this visit represents demonstrates just how compromised they are. This visit is not premature, nor irrelevant; it is a deliberate political statement telling the Irish people that the Proclamation is null and void.

The Proclamation is not an aspirational document but a statement of sovereign intent. The Declaration Of Independence was the democratic ratification of that intent and we stand firmly behind this. The national narrative since its abandonment has been one of division amongst our people, a subservience to religious doctrine, financial speculators and vested interests. Partition and the Proclamation cannot be reconciled and those who either cheerlead for this visit or are incapable of opposing it have allied themselves with the former.

Ireland’s sovereignty does not end at the border and the restoration of our national sovereignty can only be achieved by removing that border. The 32 County Sovereignty Movement call on all republicans to oppose this visit and to expose the true political and constitutional intent behind it.

Commander In Chief of British death squads not welcome in Ireland.

British death squad leader to visit ireland.

President Mary McAleese has announced Britain's Queen Elizabeth II has accepted an invitation to visit the Republic later this year.

While the dates of the visit and the programme have yet to be announced by the Áras and Buckingham Palace, it is expected to take place over three days in May.

In a brief statement, the Government said it welcomed the acceptance of the invitation. “The visit will mark a further improvement in the very good relations between Ireland and the United Kingdom.”

A number of sources said earlier this month the queen would make a “major” speech in Dublin Castle on relations between the countries.

The queen will be accompanied by her husband, the Duke of Edinburgh, the first to the Republic by a reigning British monarch.

British Ambassador Julian King said the queen and her husband were “very much looking forward to their visit" to Ireland.

Ogláigh ná hEireánn Claim attack on RUC.

The Real IRA in Derry has said it was behind Wednesday night’s gun attack on PSNI officers in the Glen Road area of the city and warned that more attacks will follow.

In a statement, the group also denied police reports that civilians were in the immediate vicinity when the shots were fired.

A spokesperson for the dissident republican group, using a recognised codeword, claimed its “volunteers” waited until civilians had left the area before opening fire.

“We tried to engage them on two occasions but they were surrounded by civilians, including children, and were forced to pull back. The volunteers then engaged the police officers when they got in the car and their vehicle was hit by six rounds. When they did engage there was no civilians around the target.

“The fact that the volunteers pulled back when they were in a closer position undoubtedly saved the lives of the police officers,” the group stated.

The dissident group claimed the PSNI use civilians as “shields” when responding to call outs. “They deliberately surround themselves with civilians, especially young people, who they use as shields.

“We reiterate our call for people to stay away from the British police and we call on parents to tell their children to stay away from them and not allow themselves to be used as shields,” the spokesperson said.

Rejecting claims by the PSNI that the lives of members of the public were endangered in the attack, the RIRA spokesperson said: “The presence of civilians saved lives on this occasion. More attacks will follow.”

IRPWA Welcome Prisoner Unity

Irish Republican Prisoners Welfare Association.

4/3/2011

IRPWA welcome prisoner unity.

The IRPWA welcome the latest development among the republican prisoners in Maghaberry Gaol whereby, it is our understanding, that ALL POW's are now refusing to conform with the prison services policy of strip searches. We hope and trust that all POW's and their representatives on the outside can now come to a common agreement to face down the common enemy of draconian practices and intransigence within the Prison Officers Association and the Northen Ireland Prison Service. We commend all those who have arrived at this decision and support their efforts to defend the agreement made in good faith by the Republican POW's last August.
Restore Political Status Now.
Victory to the POW's.
