Troops Out Movement welcomes cessation
The group which campaigns in England Scotland and Wales for
British withdrawal from Ireland has welcomed the cessation. In a
statement Jill Baker of the Troops Out Movement said:
``The Troops Out Movement welcome the opportunity presented by the
restoration of the IRA cessation.
``This opportunity represents the best possibility for moving away
from the disastrous failed policy of British occupation and
toward a just and lasting peace for all of the people of Britain
and Ireland.
``The onus is now on the British government to seize this
opportunity for peace and justice.
``We in the Troops Out Movement now have a great responsibility to
the majority of British people who support British withdrawal
from Ireland. It is up to us to put pressure on our government to
ensure that this view is not ignored.''
