STOP THEIR MONEY AND IMPRISON THEM!

This is straightforward. An announcement on the future of government funding for loyalist terrorism is expected to be made later. There have been calls for a £1.2m package to be withdrawn following recent violence in Carrickfergus and Bangor associated with the UDA.  Social Development Minister Margaret Ritchie is expected to make an announcement at Stormont.

Right. All money to these vermin should be stopped. We have to get out of this cycle of rewarding terrorists with CASH! The Police should move against these terror warlords and imprison them all. I also hope the ever-so ernest and linguistically intense Ms Ritchie will do what is right and make it clear that there will not be a penny more for the UDA. I predict she will leave doors open to the UDA however, let's see what develops!

UPDATE;

Government funding for the loyalist Ulster Defence Association in Northern Ireland will cease in 60 days if gunmen do not decommission weapons.

Social development minister Margaret Ritchie linked the move to recent UDA violence in Counties Antrim and Down and said she was not prepared to continue supporting a conflict transformation project without evidence of reduced criminality. Wow - that's telling them, eh? Just two more months to keep getting funded and them Ritchie might do something? Pathetic

When I see this I cant help reflect on the dear friends I have left crippled and brain damaged by these thugs, the kids on heroin that hung themselves from misery and the girls coaxed into a life of Whoring by drugs and threats, and the countless victims pointlessly attacked for their perceived religion. To name but a few of the UDA's transgressions. now let me make clear i welcome the elemination of any violent terrorist, this was not by any streach of ther imagination the UDA's actual function, being themselves violent terrorists.

What BASTARDS the government are for ensuring these animals are incorporated into our society and given influence over it (CRJ and caammmunitie 'workers'), and are being PAID, PAID ! to ensure they do so from tax payers money. The parents' of the victims of UDA attacks are paying for them to excerpt influence over a society where they have no democratic mandate. You can't get sicker than that. The British Government are ensuring the biggest single factor in the degradation of Protestant Ulster will remain alive and healthy for many years to come, their reasons for this I will leave to you to ponder.

If Mary MacAleese and British Labour love the UDA so much, why not pay for them to set up shop in Dublin and London and leave us alone ?

Well said.

Good prediction.

>>why not pay for them to set up shop in Dublin <<

The UDA is apparently strongly involved in crime in the RoI, generally drug supplies, working together with the INLA. A large INLA extortion racket was busted just this week, We'll see what emerges.
