Martin Mc Guinness

Has resigned as Deputy First minister. He has held that post for 10 years. A very public former IRA man turned politician. he has divided many opinions.
Second in command of the IRA in Derry on Bloody Sunday he give evidence to the Saville inquiry. He spoke ard the 1986 Ard Fheis in favour of ending abstentionism in the 26 Counties. He was a major part of the IRA and SF negotiating teams that met with different British agencies throughout the troubles. Martin McGuinness was a driving force for the GFA and eventually became DFM. A role he shared with Ian Paisley. They became workable friends. The GFA (with the part of Republican and Unionist) became the blue print for peace in Ireland. There was no greater part played and no greater effort made by anyone than Martin McGuinness.

It is my view that he is one of Ireland's greatest men.
