Former Sinn Fein leader Gerry Adams says there would have been ‘very few tears’ shed in “working class Scotland” if the IRA had killed Margaret Thatcher
in the 1984 Brighton bombing.
Adams was asked if he would have been ‘happy’ to see Thatcher killed in the 1984 bombing. Five people died and 31 injured when the IRA bombed the Grand Hotel in Brighton during Conservative Party conference. “There would be very few tears shed for Margaret Thatcher in Republican Ireland, or in many villages in Wales and working class Scotland and England itself. But, it’s done, it’s over, it’s gone. All of that was in the past.”
