Ruairi O Bradaigh's clout cannot be dismissed by Adams.

Former chief of staff of the IRA, Ruairi O Bradaigh, in an interview with the London Times said that history did not stop with the signing of the Stormont agreement. Militant republicanism is alive and well he said. O Bradaigh, President of Republican Sinn Fein, said the overwhelming lesson of history is that there has always been resistance. The interviewer concludes that O Bradaigh's refusal to compromise his republican beliefs, his immaculate republican credentials and his international contacts have given him 'a clout that is difficult for Gerry Adams to ignore'

Republican Sinn Fein were at the march yesterday. They sold out the entire stock of their newspaper Saoirse during the day.
