Tony Blair must remove anti-agreement securocrats
Sinn Féin Newry Armagh MP Conor Murphy has said that British Prime Minster
Tony Blair must remove anti-agreement securocrats from positions of influence
where they can undermine the peace process.
Mr Murphy said:
"The malign influence of securocrats such as those who were members of the
RUC old guard and special branch has at every twist and turn of the peace
process tried to undermine progress and defend unionist interests.
"Sinn Fein support the pursuit of criminal assets however in recent days
the Assets Recovery Agency have pursued a blatant political agenda that does
not stand up to even the most cursory of examinations.
"Tony
Blair has a responsibility to remove anti-agreement securocrats from
positions of influence where they can undermine the peace process." ENDS
