The Irishman is being interviewed by the international press and TV media. He tells them that they are simply exaggerating the alleged level of violence in Northern Ireland. There isn't any real violence at all, according to him.

The Irishman makes an impressive appearance of sincerity and the international media is impressed with him. Finally, one reporter speaks up: "You are obviously a man of sincerity and I think we all believe you. Now, just to get some background information on who you are, would you mind telling us what you do for a living?"

The Irishman smiles and says: " Not at all. I'm a tail gunner on a milk lorry".
