Yes.

The UVF are abusive, insane people. I hope the Miami Band guy finds out what did happen, and that some level of justice is done, just like the boys at Kincora and many other cases. I think it will be impossible to find evidence not deliberately hosed up and/or written by schizo supergrass fucks.

Hey, don't forget the UVF's very own doomsday plan for the repartition of Ireland. Guess that's the one thing that sort of undermines the credibility of the letter; that the UVF themselves are incredibly shady motherfuckers.

Just because they had a genocidal contingency plan to make Northern Ireland a scots-irish ethnostate doesn't mean they're lying about MI5. :shrug:

I guess the question that should be asked is why they would lie about this now? Or even why say anything at all?

An investigation is the bare minimum of what should be expected, and not collective silence.

im not arguing either way but they're not lying now if they are lying but lying in the context of a historic breakdown in good faith betweeen loyalists and the british government

the brits are cunts and may be lying but also the uvf are cunts and maybe lying

either way some oval office is lying imo

They aren't lying about this now, they were (very probably) lying about it in 1987, to make out that they were very powerful and well connected, and should be listened to, and the records have been opened because it is 30 years after that.

I don't doubt this at all but just for my own edification I'm going to say "got any examples"

Weirdly I've found the occasional good thing Reagan did over the years, where as Thatcher just gets worse and worse and worse

My opinion of her was already at zero but she's managed to unlock negative numbers with me

"The DfE has also faced severe criticism over the appointment from those who say Young wrote in support of employing eugenics to weed out children deemed less likely to have high IQs.

Young said that criticism was a “little misleading”, saying the article, written for the Australian periodical Quadrant in 2015, discussed technological advancement in the area and argued that any future developments should be made available on national health services, rather than only making them available to the rich."

yes you see, i meant eugenics for everyone not just the wealthy! that's better right
