In August 1971 we had one enemy to face – the Brits. Our primary objective was to smash Stormont. Now we have a new enemy – the enemy within that works to preserve Stormont. Now Stormont Sinn Féin works for the Brits and for the RUC, enforcing partition and the British occupation.

On this anniversary of internment people only have to look at this week’s papers to see how far Stormont Sinn Féin have gone and to see a true picture of collusion: Stormont Sinn Féin posing and sitting cosy in Da Vinci’s Hotel with the RUC. They are sitting there with the RUC working on a policing plan for Derry, working out how best to keep the Croppies down on behalf of the British state while the Special Powers Act is still in place and political prisoners are still in jail.

The rotten, partitioned 6 county state that is founded on the Special Powers Act, is maintained by it and depends on repression for its very existence hasn’t changed much since 1971 except in one respect: it has the full support of the Sinn Féin sell-outs. As any young person can see in Derry today, a republican doesn’t just have to contend with the cops or the Brits anymore if they want to protest – they now have to contend with the collaborators in Sinn Féin who threaten and attack them for voicing an opinion that threatens partition.

They are actively working with the British in Derry today, backing the Orange state and if this isn’t collusion, then what is?

Now that they are working for the British state Stormont Sinn Féin would like us to forget internment and have it erased from history. They have tried to stop commemorations across the six counties and are instead trying to sell partition because they have been bought by the Brits.

And it pays to collaborate – the dogs in the street know that: we have watched as Stormont Sinn Féiners have become the new faceless men. So much for the policy of a Socialist Republic. They got rich quick with a number of corrupt schemes. The one that effects this generation of young people and will effect the next is their monopoly of property in Derry and the rest of the six counties.

They buy houses for cash while everybody else has to face mounting property prices that are a direct result of their control over housing: who would have thought it, back in 1971, when we were marching for the right to a home, that our children would never be able to afford their own home in 2007? And not a question from their friends in the RUC Criminal Assets Bureau – such are the rewards of collusion.

More than a century ago Michael Davitt called the landlords “cormorant vampires” and we treated them the same way in 1971. The new Sinn Féin landlords are no different.

Internees where tortured by the British in 1971 and they are still doing it in Iraq and Afghanistan today. The hooded treatment is still being used by the British and Americans in Basra and Abu Ghraib, where political prisoners are tortured every hour. In 1971 internment and torture was central to the British government’s policy of state terrorism and they are still doing it and getting away with it.
