Another Provo Promoted by SF
08 April 2013
Statement by TUV leader Jim Allister:
“The decision of Sinn Fein/IRA to co-opt convicted murderer Ian Milne to fill Francie Molloy’s Assembly seat illustrates yet again how wedded the party remains to terrorism.
“Milne once featured on the RUC’s “three most wanted list” and spent time in jail in the Republic before being arrested in Lurgan in 1977 and receiving a life sentence for the murder of a UDR member.
“Rather than attempting to leave terrorism behind appointments by Sinn Fein in recent times have shown that the party continues to believe Republican terrorism was justified. This appointment demonstrates, once again, Sinn Fein’s utter contempt for the victims of the IRA. It makes a nonsense of McGuinness pretending in his weekend speech that he was interested in understanding Unionists and illustates that Sinn Fein/IRA are still in the business of rewarding those who, in their language, spent time on "active service".
