Statement by TUV leader Jim Allister:-
“Today, sadly, 15 more people have died, but Sinn Fein – controlled by the illegal IRA Army Council – prioritises its republican hatred of all things British and attacks the Health Minister seeking Army assistance.
“Of course, if we need the Army they should be called in aid of the civil power.
“Once more Ms O’Neill and Sinn Fein fail the fitness for government test.”
