From 1988 a leaflet for May Day in Cork
On then to a 1971 leaflet “Sinn Féin – Yesterday and Today”
Then a leaflet issued (I think ) by the Sinn Fein POW department “Know Your Rights -Advice on what to do if arrested in the 26 Counties”
“Stand up to Britain -Vote McAllister -Vote the prisoners No. 1″- A poster for Tom McAllister an Anti H Block candidate who ran in Clare in the 1981 General Election
and finally a recent “What we have done in Government” Leaflet from Cáit Keane Fine Gael
Here’s Owen Carron from August 1981 who held the seat before Ken. Ken was a UDR major. Ken just resigned from the UUP because of its willingness to embrace Gay couples being allowed to be a couple legally. And this guy was pushed by the Brits and the South as the voice of reason against republicanism in the late ’80s and early ’90s.
