Statement by TUV leader Jim Allister:-
“Considering the Police Ombudsman made a finding of state and church cover-up in relation to the notorious Claudy bombing, it is astounding and utterly unacceptable that the police investigation has been abandoned.

“This was a bombing involving the Provo priest whom McGuinness denied even knowing; then it turned out he had visited him. What else is McGuinness and other IRA leaders hiding over this wicked bombing. Now, it seems the PSNI isn’t even trying to find out. How many key republican figures have they interviewed?

Statement by TUV leader Jim Allister:
“Kathryn Stone’s comments in today’s News Letter confirm what I have suspected for some time – that she is supremely unfit to represent the needs and interests of innocent victims. For her to refuse to say whether the IRA – which butchered almost 1,700 people– or the UVF – who slaughtered almost 400 people – were terrorists is completely unacceptable and reveals her total inability to stand up for innocent victims.
