A further delay in the release of the British Saville Report into the murderous activities of the British army in Derry City on Bloody Sunday comes as no surprise, a spokesman for Republican Sinn Féin has said.

“Throughout the years the Brits have always been reluctant to admit that their role in Ireland was malignant. Whilst the cancer of British rule continues, aided and abetted by the Provisionals, further massacres of Irish citizens remain possible.

“It is also unsurprising to hear that the Provos' Martin McGuinness paid only lip-service to the families' quest for the truth, stating that a simple apology would have been sufficient. True Republicans demand a full and final British withdrawal from Ireland. Only this can help to put tragedies such as Bloody Sunday behind us.”
