An Irish Language Act plan is sectarian

I am shocked that the DUP is apparently considering a Irish Language Act, according to press reports.

A Irish Language Act would be sectarian and could end up meaning that only those who can speak Irish would get jobs in the public sector.

Do Ulster Scots have to learn Irish to get jobs?

Such an act would be anti Protestant and anti unionist as very few unionists can speak Irish.

I am pleased to see that unionist outgoing MP Lady Sylvia Hermon has come out strongly against any such act.

Mrs Foster says the DUP has no red lines. If so then will same sex marriage be next on the agenda?
