to put it another way, I understand Tony Blair's rather distant relationship with the truth. but the fact remains, he represented the government of the United Kingdom when he made these commitments. If Sinn Fein cannot trust promises made by a Labour government, what incentive do they have to trust that a DUP/Conservative coalition will honor any future agreements?
I understand the unionist reasons for opposing it, they rightly see it as a step on the road to reunification. But since "honest Tony" wrote the check as PM, they may have to bite the bullet and cash it.
