  Danny Morrison (republican) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Danny Morrison (born Belfast 1953) is an Irish Republican activist and writer.
At the 1981 Sinn Féin conference, he coined the phrase "a ballot paper in this hand and an Armalite in the other" to describe the proposed two-pronged strategy of the Provisional IRA and Sinn Féin in advancing the cause of republicanism.
Since 1989, Morrison has published several novels and plays on themes relating to republicanism and Belfast.

 Danny Morrison
Ten years ago, Danny Morrison was found guilty of being an accomplice in the kidnap and interrogation of a police informer, Sandy Lynch, who had been held and interrogated by the IRA for two days in 124 Carrigart Avenue, Belfast.
He was deprived of food, just as Sandy Lynch was, and indeed, as poor Danny Morrison was the other day on the train from Belfast (though only for a while, you'll rejoice to hear), he finally got a fry in a soda farl.
In the case of Sandy Lynch, some time later Danny Morrison arrived at the house and was arrested in a police raid.

There was no mention by Myers of the possibility that both men could have been in the area at the time on separate peace missions and that occasionally those in the same line of work do happen, due to proximity, to bump off each other in the street or pass a sentence or two.
Danny in turn has not taken any of this lying down and furiously disputes the claims of those out to undermine the peace process that he was lying standing up.
At least one way of measuring the freedom of any society is the amount of comedy that is permitted, and clearly a healthy society permits more satirical comment than a repressive, so that if comedy is to function in some way as a safety release then it must obviously deal with these taboo areas.

 Cricinfo - Players and Officials - Danny Morrison
Short in stature, a handicap more than made up for with spirit, Danny Morrison succeeded Richard Hadlee as New Zealand's main strike bowler, and with a slingy action and a good outswinger, he led the line with distinction and for the first half of the 1990s was an ever present in the side.
As a genuine strike bowler he often went for a few runs, but developed into a good one-day bowler, with a well-disguised slower ball and nagging accuracy, and his ability to swing the ball made him a difficult proposition in his pomp.
New Zealand won only two of his last 35 Tests, but each time Morrison was the catalyst, with 6 for 37 against Australia at Auckland in 1992-93, and eight wickets against Pakistan at Christchurch a year later.
