The Real Storey

Of course Bobby Storey had to be given the works. He was a member of the Army Council.

And that points to something that is rarely mentioned about the body that might very well be running all 32 Counties after the next General Election in the Irish Republic. It is almost entirely Northern. 

It is poised to take control of a Republic that has existed throughout the lifetimes of its members. But most of them have never lived there, and they certainly did not grow up there.
