Shameful decision on Police Reserve
06 November 2009
Statement by TUV leader Jim Allister:
"The shameful decision of the Chief Constable to proceed with the sacrifice of the Police Reserve is a patently political decision designed to assuage and meet Sinn Fein pressure. It is a deliberate slap in the teeth for Officers who gallantly served their country and leaves Northern Ireland needlessly exposed in the face of rising IRA terrorism.
"Unionists can also play politics and the response should be to abandon any prospect of devolving policing and justice."
