[2005, 513P] given by Mr. Justice Charleton (27 June 2007); letter from Ken Bloomfield to Maurice Hayes thanking him for his ‘fair and thoughtful’ review’ of his book A Tragedy of Errors. He takes his point that he comes from a unionist mindset ‘That, indeed, is why, when the NIO involved me in discussions about ‘political development between 1974 and 1984, I always suggested that your point of view should be sought and given due weight’. He does not agree with the caption accompanying the photograph of the launch that John Hume was the villain of the piece, while commenting that he contributed to a sense of isolation in the unionist community’. He comments on the current political situation ‘You know, I hope, how greatly I enjoyed working with you’;
