Statement by TUV spokesperson John Brennan: “As we prepare to enter another lockdown period it is nothing short of a kick in the teeth of the public to hear deputy First Minister O’Neill claim, “I have never deviated from the public health advice”. We all know she blatantly did. We know that some Sinn Fein […]
Statement by TUV leader Jim Allister:- “The severe nature of Stormont’s latest lockdown, which will inevitably further jeopardise our economy, arises in significant measure because of the cumulative failure of local Executives since devolution returned in 2007 to protect our NHS. “Under Stormont rule, we have seen 1500 hospital beds and the medical […]
Statement by TUV leader Jim Allister:- “The longer the police ‘investigation’ of the Storey funeral drags on the more suspicious I am that the PSNI’s position is seriously compromised. “If there is any truth in the claim of the Sinn Fein leader that the funeral was “meticulously planned” with the PSNI, then, if such collaboration […]
Statement by TUV Comber Councillor Stephen Cooper: “The interview with the Chief Constable has only added to the number of significant questions for the PSNI.

Statement by TUV leader Jim Allister:- “The latest u-turn by the Executive not only underscores the erratic unreliability of the horse-trading Stormont but raises the compelling question of what was last week all about and where now for our beleaguered businesses, now including retail? As for close contact services, they are the ultimate Hokey Cokey plaything of […]
Statement by TUV leader Jim Allister: “When the current set of restrictions were imposed people made bookings in good faith for when they would end. Businesses in turn accepted them. Small wonder then that today my office has been contacted by hairdressers, beauticians, bed and breakfast owners and hotels all of whom have appointments […]
Statement by TUV leader Jim Allister:- “Revelations that a Sinn Fein MLA, former MLA and the party failed to return £30,000, received from the Covid business support fund, until the BBC Nolan Show flushed them out, is reminiscent of how the same party creamed off £700,000 of taxpayers money into the Sinn Fein front […]
Statement by TUV leader Jim Allister: “Throughout the pandemic a core Sinn Fein objective has been to further their narrow Republican agenda and to blame Westminster for all manner of problems. Their leader made this clear in the early days of the crisis when she described Covid-19 as an ”accelerant towards a united Ireland”. “But […]
