We back politicians who have buried their conscience in their own interest

We continually hear whinging from some unionists about the blatant behaviour of Sinn Fein/IRA as they use their muscle to continue oppressing democrats.

I take a simple view in life, if this evil republican movement entered my home and murdered my kith and kin, what sort of person would I be to allow them to share my home and erect a monument in my garden to their victory of their slaughter?

Come on good people, would you praise my actions?

I think not, and your descriptions of me would not lack strong condemnation.

Yet this is happening in our land and we continue to support career politicians who buried their conscience for their own interests.

We need honourable people willing to stand together, in a new coalition, free from political party treachery.

I think the time has come to stand up and vote decent people who have no blood on their hands to come forward.

I am sure money would roll in to support them to achieve a successful challenge.

Ms EA Taggart, Portrush
