We need action to round up those who would take innocent life
It is terrible news that the prison officer who was the victim of a republican terror attack in east Belfast has tragically died as a result of his injuries.
Firstly, we offer our sincere and heartfelt condolences to the wife and family of the victim.
We demand that assurances are given and measures are now taken on securing the safety of all workers involved in the prison service, PSNI and emergency services.

Platitudes from the great and the good no longer represent the deep feeling and the hurt of public opinion.
We need action now to round up for whatever reason all those people that the security forces believe would make us safer if they were no longer roaming and able to take innocent lives.
