TRADITIONAL Unionist Voice chairman for Mid-Ulster, Walter Millar has announced that the party will hold a public meeting in Cookstown Orange Hall on Monday, March 3 at 8pm.
It will give unionist and loyalist people the opportunity to hear the alternatives to the present DUP/Sinn Fein coalition with Martin McGuinness and Ian Paisley in government.
T.U.V. leader MEP Jim Allister QC will be present to outline the altern
atives and take questions from the public.
“The DUP has stated that they had no other alternative, as Plan B from the British government was much worse, but of course there never was a Plan B and last week’s news should have brought home to the Unionist people that the DUP main motivation for going into government was not to get it right or deliver for unionists but rather to get it right and deliver for their own family members either by employing them, or renting accommodation from them,” said Mr Millar.
He said since Devolution was restored, the people of Ulster have witnessed shambled after shambles - eg - The Giant’s Causeway saga, the Maze Stadium proposal complete with H Block shrine to IRA prisoners still not rejected, education in a mess under Catriona Ruane, Ian Paisley resigning as Junior Minister, water charges to be introduced 15 per cent higher than first priced, and the Sinn Fein proposal to use Stormont to commemorate the former IRA terrorist Mairead Farrell and offer her life as a role model for women on March 6 which is World Women’s Day.
Mr Millar added that law abiding unionists and loyalists deserve better and this is why the TUV is present in Mid-Ulster and throughout Northern Ireland - so that they can have a voice and an alternative to vote for.
