Double standards from the DUP

Gregory Campbell MP recently said of footballer James McClean: 'For those who say he's entitled to refuse to wear it (the poppy), yes he is but being entitled to do something wrong doesn't make it right.'

Sounds a bit like how the DUP use the petition of concern at Stormont.

They are entitled to veto the majority ruling of other MLAs but that doesn’t mean its right to do so.

Should we be surprised that largest party in Northern Ireland is resorting to double-standards?
