DUP dedicate victory to Kerr. Kerr brother rebukes UUP leader

While DUP leader Peter Robinson has dedicated his party victory in the Assembly election to PSNI Constable Ronan Kerr.

Constable Kerr’s brother Cathair has rounded on UUP leader Tom Elliott describing his comments on SF as prehistoric, prejudiced and questioning if voters would support them.

@EamonnMallie prehistoric comments. Ppl need to move forward. Would his voters still vote for him nw?

I would strongly doubt they all think that?? They are prejudiced comments at the end of the day.
