He endorsed Brown first before he went - no doubt to satisfy his party. They wouldn't want the anti-war McDonnell!

“It’s about time we started honouring those people involved in the armed struggle. It was the bombs and bullets and sacrifice made by the likes of Bobby Sands that brought Britain to the negotiating table. The peace we have now is due to the action of the IRA”
-May 2003
