Gerry Adams backs Jeremy Corbyn as next PM - BBC News

Quote:

Speaking on BBC One's The Andrew Marr show, Mr Adams praised Mr Corbyn's approach to negotiations in the early days of the Northern Ireland peace process.

Mr Corbyn and shadow chancellor John McDonnell have both faced criticism over their past dealings with Sinn Féin, including their decision to meet the party at Westminster in the 1990s, before the IRA ceasefire.

"He and (former London Mayor) Ken Livingstone and others kept faith and they were the people who said, when others said no, talk.

They were the people who were open to conversation about how to deal with conflict and how to get conflict resolution processes."
