Roy Greenslade was editor of the Daily Mirror.
The Daily Mirror has always been a supporter of Irish Nationalism.
Robert Maxwell the pension thief was a former owner of the Mirror who used the paper to call for the unilateral withdrawal of troops from N. I.
The Mirror has always been pro Republican.
I've always found the Robert Maxwell story quite intriguing, he was a very naughty boy, no doubt about it, and when he was rumbled, he felt the only course of action was to take his own life.
Fast forward a few years, can anyone imagine Philip Green taking his own life?, what he did wasn't so different to Maxwell and they gave the bastard a knighthood.
