   The oath taken in order to sit in Westminster should at least be changed/reworded in order for SF to take their seats but would they if that was to happen?

   DUP responds to ongoing BBC smear campaign

   Below is a statement released by the Democratic Unionist Party:

   “It is difficult to escape the conclusion that this is yet another example of the ongoing BBC smear campaign against DUP leader Peter Robinson. In January they made groundless allegations against him in the Spotlight Programme and now they seek to smear him further by innuendo and inference.

   In fact, this is not even a new story. The sale of his back garden has appeared on the BBC in the past and this particular story first appeared in the Daily Mirror several months ago.

   Mr Robinson sold his land at the market-value, as admitted by the BBC. There are no tax implications. The sliver of land was bought for £5 and sold for £5, a fact that has never been hidden, and Mr Robinson derived no financial benefit whatsoever from the transaction. There were a number of other access possibilities and the sliver of land was not essential for access. Mr Robinson was not present at any meetings where issues about the planning approval for this land were raised. No registration was considered necessary as no financial gain was accrued and the sliver in question was purchased for five pounds.

   The BBC has been working on this broadcast since the beginning of the year but has cynically chosen to delay broadcast of this report to the start of the election campaign.

   While the BBC was slow to run stories concerning the cover up of child sex abuse earlier this month, or the cover up of murder earlier this week, they seem all too eager to run a story about the entirely legal sale of Peter Robinson’s back garden.

   We are fed up with this ongoing BBC smear campaign and Mr Robinson has handed these issues over to his legal team to be dealt with.

   People will reach their own conclusions about the motivations which lie behind such decisions, but the DUP does not intend to be distracted from the work of moving Northern Ireland forward.”

   Just drove past Willy Frazer, he’s standing in Craigavon with a camcorder, seems there was a bomb attack on another empty police station.

   [quote]Not sure how this is comparable to the Easter Rising. [/quote]

   Those involved in the rising, were also a minority, in fact they prided themselves on being such. I suspect the dissys have visions of being the new holders of ‘Ireland’s cause’.

10. Comment on Have the Loyal Orders lost their Luca Brasi?
    on 23 February 2010 at 11:05 pm

    Found this on wilki but I believe it’s from a book about Drumcree.

    [quote]The Apprentice Boys, a Protestant fraternity similar to the Orange Order, had planned to march along Garvaghy Road on 1 April (Easter Monday). The day before, [b]police decided to ban the march as it believed the UDA were to take part.[16] At 1:00am on Monday, at least 3000 men gathered in the town centre, forced their way past a small group of police, and marched along Garvaghy Road.[11] Among them was Ian Paisley,[11] leader of the Democratic Unionist Party [/b]and of the fundamentalist Free Presbyterian Church. [b]Residents claimed that some of the marchers were carrying guns.[16] Some of the marchers attacked houses along the route[/b] and residents claimed that the RUC did little or nothing to stop this.[11] There followed rioting between residents and the RUC. Some set up barricades for fear of further attacks.[11] There was a feeling among locals that the RUC had “mutinied” and refused to enforce the ban.[11] Sinn Féin leader Gerry Adams said that it was “more evidence of the untrustworthiness of the RUC”.[11] In the afternoon, another Apprentice Boys parade marched through the town centre. A group of loyalists attacked police, who were blocking access to the nationalist area. One rioter, Keith White, was shot by a plastic bullet and died in hospital on 14 April.[16][17][/quote]
