Teach na Failte, a project for former Republican Socialist prisoners, announced last week that it had obtained almost half a million pounds in peace funding packages. (Whats the betting that the SP also oppose this funding? They probably wanted it spent on new instruments for 'Kick The Pope' Orange Bands.) read full story / add a comment
