    Tories cosying up to terrorists

    Not the Saudis this time.

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ulster_Resistance

    The group was launched at a three thousand-strong invitation-only meeting at the Ulster Hall. The rally was chaired by the Democratic Unionist Party (DUP) Press Officer Sammy Wilson and addressed by party colleagues Ian Paisley, Peter Robinson and Ivan Foster. Also on the platform was Alan Wright, the chairman of the Ulster Clubs. The launch rally was followed by a number of similar assemblies across Northern Ireland.

    At a rally in Enniskillen, Peter Robinson announced; "'Thousands have already joined the movement and the task of shaping them into an effective force is continuing. The Resistance has indicated that drilling and training has already started. The officers of the nine divisions have taken up their duties'.[5]

    At a rally in the Ulster Hall, Paisley spoke of a need for an extra-governmental Third Force to fight against the aims of Irish republicanism. He was then filmed dramatically placing a red beret on his head and standing to attention.

    DUP deputy leader Peter Robinson was also photographed wearing the militant loyalist paramilitary regalia of beret and military fatigues at an Ulster Resistance rally.[6]

    A mass membership failed to materialise, but active groups were established in country areas such as County Armagh, attracting support from rural conservative Ulster Protestants.

      After being instrumental in the foundation. So you're saying they're reformed terrorists so that's OK?

        They could always join the Tory terrorist wing with the IRA councillor in Croydon.

          Definitely the "Coalition of Chaos" now
          Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.
