The Good Friday Agreement 22nd Anniversary


The Good Friday Agreement 22nd Anniversary

Today 22nd May 2020, marks the 22nd Anniversary of The Referendum on The Good Friday Agreement, the signing of The Good Friday Agreement had taken place in April, the document was physically signed by the then Secretary of State for Northern Ireland, Mo Mowlam, who would later state that the continued Human Rights Violations including murder and rape against the Catholic community in Northern Ireland by Sinn Fein/PIRA, were being viewed by the British Government as “Internal-House-keeping” and not being viewed as breaches of the ‘cease-fire’, Articles of Surrender agreed between MI6 Officer, Michael Oatley and MI6 Agent, Martin McGuinness.


The second person to physically sign the Good Friday Agreement and on behalf of The Irish Government would be then, Minister for Justice, John O’Donoghue TD who would later be exposed as corrupt and self-serving, and would be forced to resign as Ceann Comhairle (Speaker of the House equivalent), this was the first time a Ceann Comhairle had been forced to resign. O’Donoghue had enjoyed lavished expenses while children were being turned away from Temple Street Children’s Hospital due to lack of resources.


John O’Donoghue’s Party Leader, Berty Ahern would be subject to a corruption investigation by The Mahon Tribunal and found to be a liar. Berty Ahern was in fact corrupt and that corruption did not stop with The Mahon Tribunal, the Northern Ireland ‘peace process’ was used as a distraction by Berty Ahern and others who were engaging in smoke and mirrors.

It is worth remembering that at a time when RUC and Garda Officers were being slaughtered by Sinn Fein/PIRA, Berty Ahern said: 

“These things will continue until there is an acceptable police force”.


I became involved in the ‘peace-process’ in 1992 when I was introduced to John Hume, at this time John Hume was engaged in talks with Gerry Adams, this embryotic stage of the ‘peace process’ was known as The Hume/Adams Initiative. My role was to work quietly with John Hume and develop a blue-print for a peace settlement, I developed a concept known as Consociational Democracy.


From the outset of these talks, both John Hume (SDLP Leader) and Kevin McKenna (PIRA Chief of Staff), had serious concerns about the role Martin McGuinness was playing. John Hume felt that McGuinness could do a dirty-deal with The British that would leave the Catholic community at the dictate of Sinn Fein/PIRA, Kevin McKenna had suspicions from 1986 that McGuinness was a British Agent, but he had no evidence to support his suspicions. Under Orders from Kevin McKenna, I exposed the talks between McGuinness and The British, using the document below, which is a Communication between MI6 Officer Michael Oatley and McGuinness.

The Good Friday Agreement was supposed to be a blue-print that could provide an opportunity for Sinn Fein/PIRA and their Loyalist counter-parts to cease their terrorist campaigns without losing face within their own communities. The Good Friday Agreement did provide this opportunity, however, the dirty-deal between McGuinness and MI6, did and continues to undermine all of the good faith that was put into The Good Friday Agreement.


McGuinness (with or without the knowledge of Adams) agreed a dirty-deal with MI6 that would leave The GFA unworkable and constantly undermine the efforts of those who engaged in the process in good faith. Sinn Fein/PIRA are an organisation without principle, they would sell their soul to the devil for 30 pieces of silver.

McGuinness had engaged in a twin-track approach to The Good Friday Agreement, McGuinness wanted the ‘big’ political settlement for his place in history, but he also wanted Sinn Fein/PIRA to be in a position to impose their will on the Catholic community without fear of interference from The British Government.


McGuinness agreed his Articles of Surrender with his MI6 Handler, Michael Oatley, these articles of surrender ensured that Sinn Fein/PIRA could without restraint continue to engage in Human Rights Violations against the Catholic community including murder and rape. No Irish Government has ever had sight of the Articles of Surrender agreed between MI6 and McGuinness.

The Good Friday Agreement was embraced by many in good faith; however, Sinn Fein/PIRA have never acted in good faith. Some of those involved in the closing stages of The Good Friday Agreement such as Berty Ahern, John O’Donoghue used the process as a distraction, and did not ask for clarity in relation to many issues, they had been clearly warned.

And so it is that we have ended up with a fairly decent political agreement, the Good Friday Agreement, but on the other hand we have a very, very, dirty-deal between McGuinness and MI6 Officer Oatley, until the latter agreement burns in hell with its signatories there will be ongoing bad faith on behalf of Sinn Fein/PIRA, because they have The Good Friday Agreement in one hand and the dirty-deal in the other.


Between 1992 and The PIRA Convention in 1997 I was a runner between Kevin McKenna and Martin McGuinness, here are just two of The Articles of Surrender agreed between Martin McGuinness and MI6 Officer Oatley:


Article 1. The Provisional IRA Army Council: Wednesday 31st August 1994

The Terms and Conditions of this cease-fire exclude in totality the Catholic community of the occupied 6 counties. We retain the right and capacity to suppress all and any opposition to our stated position from within the Catholic community, without political interference from The British Government, including its armed forces.

Article 2. The Provisional IRA Army Council: Wednesday 31st August 1994

The Terms and Conditions of this cease-fire excludes in totality the Irish Freestate, its armed forces including members of An Garda Siochana. We retain the right and capacity to bring about the destruction of the Irish Freestate by whatever means at our disposal, without foreign interference.

Sinn Fein/PIRA were not the only Liars involved in the Good Friday Agreement

British Prime Minister, Tony Blair, offered a false sense of security to those who has suffered at the hands of Sinn Fein/PIRA and Loyalist terrorists for decades when on, Wednesday 20th May 1998, Blair delivered a speech at the Coleraine campus of the University of Ulster in which he unveiled a hand-written set of pledges to the people of Ireland in advance of the Referendum on 22ndMay 1998.

The text of the pledges was as follows:

“I pledge to the people of Northern Ireland:

1.   No change in the status of Northern Ireland without the express consent of the people of Northern Ireland.

2.    Power to take decisions returned to a Northern Ireland Assembly, with accountable North/South co-operation.

3.      Fairness and equality guaranteed for all.

4.      Those who use or threaten violence excluded from the Government of Northern Ireland.

5.      Prisoners kept in unless violence is given up for good”. 

In conclusion

The Good Friday Agreement did offer a political solution, that solution was to be put to a vote of respective parties to it, it was then to be put to the people and if accepted by the people, it was a matter for the parties to it, to get down to the business of politics, ensuring constant political pressure on any party to it, that stepped outside its parameters.

Unfortunately, some parties to the agreement, got too cosy, some turned a blind eye to Human Rights Violations including murder and rape when it suited them, and then the same parties offered crocodile tears as the coffins continued to accumulate. Some fell in with the Sinn Fein/PIRA narrative, that the finger must only be pointed at, ‘The Dissidents’, the same ‘dissidents’ which were armed by Sinn Fein/PIRA, and who continue to work hand-in-hand with Sinn Fein/PIRA.

All is not lost, but with bad faith on behalf of Sinn Fein/PIRA expected to intensify, it is unlikely that people acting in good faith will see the true nature of their opponents until it is too late, by then their children and grand-children will be left in the ditches of a rewritten history.
