Days after the attack outside Derry’s courthouse, Ervine told the officials that an unclaimed retaliatory attack could be expected, but that his real worry was the cumulative effect of a series of “measured responses” by loyalists.
At the time loyalist paramilitaries were carrying out “targeting operations”, Ervine said, before making a “cryptic reference” to “the trouble we’ve been having trying to keep them away from the Border”. The PUP leader told the Irish officials he was concerned a collapse of the loyalist ceasefire would mean the “relatively older” CLMC being usurped by “younger and more volatile elements whose approach would be less predictable”.
In a separate meeting between Ervine and Irish officials at Castle Buildings in Belfast in January 1997, the PUP leader “dwelled on close links between the LVF and the DUP”.
Ahhh yep the old threat of loyalist violence ... 1914 and ongoing ever since
