Yes. 

Some of us lived and breathed it at the time.  We know the truth.

I know one of the production team and she told me ep. 2 (today) and 3 are more damaging.

The documentary (pt 1) scratches the surface, serious as it is*.  I have seen the behaviour of these people up close.  Crossed swords with Southside (esp. McNicol) on a few occasions. Reckon I could give Al Jazeera a 4th episode if I was so inclined.  I kept the receipts.  Same goes, I am sure, for other people like me who were elected to positions in the party through those years.

* And it is, when you think about it, a real weakening of democracy when one of the two parties that can ever be in power have been so corrupted by such a faction.  See also Al Jazeera's  4-part "The Lobby" and also read the Forde Report (latter's conclusions don't match the actual content - so don't shortcut - which is why it took so long to actually emerge...)

It's very telling when journalists like Peter Oborne and Michael Crick are re-thinking their actions and inactions (yes they were at fault, yes the facts were available - it just suited their and the media owners agenda at the time).  Crick: "Every political journalist should watch the film & decide for themselves. I agree with Peter Oborne that the media - including us - should have looked into this far more. Trouble is every story in the saga was very complicated & disputed & it was hard to nail down the truth."
