Kevin Flanagan went on Hunger Strike out side the GPO in Dublin during Christmas to highlight to the public the luck lustre performance by the government. All those in authority seem to be dragging their heels as slow as possible hoping the abuse problem will just pass by with out notice. Many of the victims of this terrorist regime have been silenced through self appointed courts (Redress Board) by the government to try and keep quite the true nature of what has been happening in Ireland for nearly a century.
