Martin McGuinness afraid of debate on Scottish independence debate
Geraldine McNamara PRO of republican Sinn Fein said Martin McGuinness has shown his true colours today when he said” Northern Irish politicians should avoid getting involved in the debate over independence for Scotland and that the debate should not be allowed to cause division in the region”
Why is Martin afraid to debate Scottish independence Geraldine asks? Is it because it will show up very clearly how his own party have given up the cause of Irish independence and sold out the ideals of those who fought for Irish freedom.
Geraldine said that while the Scottish people are looking at ways of breaking the connection with England Martin McGuinness and the Provisional party have, since 1986 gone down the road of copper fastening England’s hold on the occupied six counties.
They now uphold British rule in Ireland and are crown ministers in Stormont, and encourage Irish people to join the PSNI/RUC. He is willing to meet his Queen Elizabeth 2nd and do whatever it takes to oppress republicans who oppose British rule in Ireland and will not sell out Ireland’s cause like he did.
Speaking about the Scottish independence debate Martin said "This is an issue which could be used to create divisions in this house (Stormont) or even in our Executive or even between the First Minister and myself.
"What happens elsewhere has to be a matter primarily for the people concerned and my attitude to it is we would be best advised to stay clear of it," he said.
Geraldine said, many people with Scottish connections fought for Ireland’s freedom not least James Connolly who gave his life in 1916. Now as we fast approach the centenary of his death, Ireland still remains under the British yoke.
Martin McGuinness shows clearly that his loyalty is to the British government and not those who seek Irish or Scottish independence.
