CATHOLIC, PROTESTANT AND'DISSENTER IN THE STRUGGLE FOR THE RECONQUEST OF
IRELAND BY HER PEOPLE.IT MEANS THE UNITY
OF WORKERS, SMALL FARMERS AND MEN OF NO PROPERTY
IRISH REPUBLICANS OPPOSE COMPLETELY THE CONCEPT OF CATHOLIC
RULE, OR PROTESTANT RULE, AND RESTATE THE REPUBLICAN PRINCIPLE OF
A SECULAR SOCIETY WITH GUARANTEES OF CIVIL AND RELIGIOUS LIBLRTY, AND
VOW TO FIGHT AGAINST ALL LEGAL ENACTMENTS THAT ARE
IN CONFLICT WITH THESE PRINCIPLES
THE THINKING OF THE BRITISH GOVERNMENT AS OUTLINED IN THEIR "GREBN PAPER!
IS COMPLETELY IN ACCORD HITH WHAT WE HAVE CONTIHUALLY ASSERTED TO BE
BRITAIN'S PLAN FOR IRELAND. THERE IS NOT A WORD OF DEMOCRACY

PEOPLE, NORTH OR SOUTH.^ THAT IS WHY WE OPPOSED DIRECT RULE AND SUPPORTED
THE CALL FOR DEMOCRACY. DIRECT RULE WAS BUT A,FIRST STEP BY
