McGuinness the Liar
08 September 2010
Statement by TUV Leader Jim Allister:-
“So McGuinness admits he lied about never having met Father Chesney, but expects the public to believe they never discussed his role in the Claudy bombing. Having lied about the existence of the meeting, why should anyone believe him about the content? I certainly don’t. Do his partners in government, or is lying an acceptable part of the working relationship between the DUP and IRA/Sinn Fein?
“Having admitted he lied over knowing Chesney, let McGuinness now tell all he knows about Claudy, his machine gun possession on ‘Bloody Sunday’ and his involvement in the multiple murders of his IRA. Anyone fit for government, adhering to the Nolan principles on public life, including ‘honesty’ and ‘integrity’, would do so. Instead, unfit for government, McGuinness hides behind the IRA ‘Code of Honour’, which he shared with Chesney, and holds at the very heart of government the most blood-soaked secrets of his wicked IRA.
“It is a commentary on the moral desert that is the DUP/Sinn Fein coalition that the Joint First Minister can parade himself as a liar and none of his governmental colleagues turn a hair.”
