Hunger strike plates anger Maze families

Families of the 1981 hunger strikers along with H-block protest veterans have denounced Sinn Fein's main support group in the United States for selling plates commemorating the death fast.

A New Jersey branch of Noraid - the organisation that has raised funds for the IRA and Sinn Fein since 1969 - is charging $25 per plate, plus $7 shipping. All 10 hunger strikers are pictured on each plate.
...

Richard O'Rawe, the IRA's press officer inside the Maze during the 1981 hunger strike, said: 'You eat food off a plate and yet they have brought out a plate to commemorate the men who died refusing food. It's tacky and just about making money.'
