I was really surprised that he didn't take the opportunity to secure his future and to accept what I felt was a very fair offer. That just proved to Roberto and our fans how much we value him. We wanted to try and keep him a Panther for many years.

en I condemn the bomb attacks in London this morning. I have sent a message of sympathy and solidarity to Mr. Blair and the London mayor, Ken Livingstone. On behalf of Sinn Fein I offer my sincere condolences to the victims and the families of those killed and injured and to the people of London.

en To assume we're going to have our head over a barrel and be forced to accept some sort of compromise bill is not the position we find ourselves in right now. The moratorium remains in effect.
