The granddaughter of one of the victims of an IRA bomb atrocity in Coleraine in 1973 has criticised a Sinn Féin MP's planned attendance at a republican commemoration in south Armagh

"All I am interested in is the person that I know. But when we are celebrating terrorism, I think it is a disgrace.""I don't think any MP should be at some kind of commemoration to celebrate a terrorist," she added.

"There were three siblings and the youngest one lived in England and he was very, very close to his mother. However, earlier this week Sinn Féin assembly member Conor Murphy dismissed the row as a diversionary tactic by the DUP."The real issue is here is the fact that public services are crashing round our ears."
