Irish sceptical on IRA statement

A nationwide poll has found that the majority of Irish people are sceptical of last week's IRA announcment. (hat-tip A Tangled Web)

The telephone poll, carried out for the Sunday Independent, shows that 87 per cent of people do not believe the IRA has ended its criminal activities.

I must say I'm surprised at the amount of people who are sceptical but this is not necessarily a bad thing. It shows that the IRA must prove to the people of Ireland that they are sincere through their actions as well as their words.
