Allister comments on Coleraine protest against McAleese
10 June 2008
Statement by Traditional Unionist MEP, Jim Allister:-
"Considering the flagrant way she troops all over Northern Ireland, treating it as if it were her own, it will do no harm that today President McAleese met a grassroots protest in Coleraine.
She pours out periodic vitriol against the majority community, even has the audacity to come to Northern Ireland the day the Queen visits and pontificate about when and how Her Majesty will be permitted to visit the Republic. I'm not surprised, therefore, that today ordinary Unionists took the opportunity to speak their mind. It's a pity we don't have a government capable or willing to put Mrs McAleese in her place, then street protests would be unnecessary."
