The cost of withdrawal
I was away in London yesterday hence the gap in blogging. I return to find that the British are withdrawing, but Sinn Fein is complaining about it. I am referring to the rates rebates being paid by Derry and Limavady Councils to the MoD. With Limavady facing a bill of nearly £400,000 out of the million pound rates rebate even local unionists like David McClarty are expressing their concern.
It reminds me a bit of a line from an old Marie Jones' play "Mister, I'm not in favour of a United Ireland. I couldn't afford it."
