Well as if the UK tax payers didn't have to pay enough money here is the scheme put forward to the government..

You can't seriously be telling me that government money is to be spent giving pay outs to convicted terrorists? I completely understand giving money to the innocent victims and their families but to the IRA and UDA scum who slaughtered and killed innocence? To men who would drive up the falls road at night abducting Catholics at will and then take them away to be butchered and cut into pieces? What about Omagh? Where on earth is the justice?
I find it astonishing that all this is to supposedly help put the troubles in the past, why on earth do those paramilitaries which were killed and their families deserve a single penny? Do they really deserve that money to put their mind at ease and help convince themselves that their loved one was nothing more than a low life murderer?
I'm actually bemused, and all that time Gerry Adams, a former IRA war council leader sat there in the Northern Ireland assembly smirking at the protesters.
Maybe the people who put forward this scheme should think about the insult they are causing to those families who lost loved ones to this disgusting a pointless conflict, as well as seeing that this is a deal which is on far greater terms with the Nationalist communities than it is with the unionist ones.
One word, disgusted.
