Sir, - Now that Fianna Fail has done a U-turn on de Valera and John Charles McQuaid, is it all right to bring in from the cold, mention of the Blueshirt movement of earlier times?
My parents were members and I cannot remember them but as upright, non-confrontational citizens - unless provoked, that is.
I would welcome a discussion of this era from some of your fine writers and fellow readers. - Yours, etc., Walter H. Loughrey,
