Yeah Tommy was a shinner and then a stickie (Official IRA). Our great man Tommy was the leader at the time the sticks killed five cleaning ladies and Father Gerry Weston, a Catholic priest, in Aldershot, 1972. Ah, he was a great bloke and will be sadly missed. His old comrade Eamonn Gilmour, now leader of the Labour Party prefers yachting in Dun Laoghaire harbour these days. Boom, boom! What mighty men they were when they strove for Irish Freedom! Nothing like a pile of dead old women to teach the British Empire a lesson, eh? And yes, I am being sarcastic.
