Loyalism and unionism mustn’t forget that the future of Northern Ireland and its place in the Union lies within our own hands

While republicans and all the media luvvies indulge themselves on the election success of the shinnerbots in the south, it’s OK for us to take a precautionary look over our shoulders at what our political opponents have achieved.

Those within loyalism and unionism mustn’t lose sight that the future of Northern Ireland and its place within the Union lies within our own hands.

Let’s start to look at the positives and not backwards on the negatives, to achieve a unity of purpose will require give and take from everyone,there can be no barriers as we move forward to strengthen the Union.
