This Sectarian Chanting Once again ignores the pain and suffering inflicted on Innocent Men, Women and Children by the IRA. This must be condemned by all if we want to make real progress in Northern Ireland , and see NI flourish into what It could become.

The Chanting of “Up the RA” at the Feile , only serves to perpetuate the hate and abuse that young Unionists receive, further increasing the stigma. This creates a toxic-majoritarian attitude , especially towards young Unionists attempting to voice their opinion.

A brutal and senseless murder that deprived a family of a father and a community of a leader. There was and always has been an alternative to violence. Do not let revisionism blind you from the truth.

Imagine running the Unionist Youth Network, undermining young people’s interests and serving as a PR prop for the DUP and UUP… …all for the privilege of being the UUP’s candidate for Mid Ulster. Where the UUP get 6% of the vote.

While Chairing this meeting it reinforced to myself and others the optimism and commitment we have to this group. For too long the unionist youth have been forgotten in the politics of our country , time to give them all a voice and the support they need.

I really enjoyed the @NIYF Hustings Panel, a great range of topics covered from housing to mental health. Once again, I was proud to represent the @uuponline at the event.
