The new breed of IRA has announced an agenda.
Dissident republicans the Real IRA have issued an Easter statement threatening to kill Sinn Fein's Martin McGuinness and resume terrorist attacks on the British mainland.
There may be just enough to fill a phone box but it doesn't take many to have a go at a high profile target like yerman. We saw how quickly attacks in the heart of London attract attention. Do not need to involve deaths - property damage will do when it is Canary Wharf-style buildings in areas deserted outside business hours.
They may be even be a little more of a threat than they have been credited with so far - PSNI bosses are asking where are the armoured patrol vehicles so they reckon the new blokes can punch above their weight. Maybe some will describe them as ineffective but remember the old balance of luck equation. They only need to get lucky once whilst we have to be lucky every time.
