Fedeltà #362

by

One of the cheekier tabloids ran the story on the front page the next day. PIZZA ‘TOPPING’ it proclaimed. It went on to mirror the DI’s view of what had occurred. It suggested it was an Irish liberationist act. Shaun was possibly a ‘grass’ who was despatched in a cold, brutal way.

Shaun’s girlfriend initially denied that Shaun had anything to do with any Irish political movement until she was offered an undisclosed sum of money by another tabloid to ‘tell all’... which she did... and more. Her imagination grew to match her fee. Well after all... he was dead!

    I always fancied being a Sun headline writer. What a hoot of a job! I’ll see if she has along term place in the plot. She only occurred to me this evening as a way to pump up the tabloid drabble!

    Yeah, I remember you having a good time with the tabloids in the Rufus story too.

    This may be a stupid question but, are the IRA still a force to be reckoned with over there? I haven't heard anything about them in decades.

    Thanks Christopher. As I understand, there are one or two dissident groups still causing trouble here and there, including the Real IRA and the Continuity IRA. They remain unhappy about the Good Friday Agreement.
