On @GBNEWS with @MichelleDewbs tonight I was defamed in a serious way by former Labour MP Stephen Pound who made false & damaging claims about me.
Legal correspondence from my
solicitors will now issue to Mr Pound as a matter of urgency.
@richardgently@melrobe08536915 Nope. This Prod bought a half and half balaclava from a woman beater from East Belfast who was selling them to the rioters in East Belfast. Hope that helps.
@KellyMatshall Here’s something interesting…half and half balaclavas “designed” and being sold by a woman beater from East Belfast. But that doesn’t fit your agenda.
Jamie Bryson was allowed- undisturbed by @StephenNolan - to claim loyalists do not have a pathway to professions. That is untrue. There is no special pathway for young Catholics that is not also available to young Protestants. Such inaccuracies must not go unchallenged.
Paramilitaries are not just organised crime gangs like anywhere else and organised crime gangs are not just the paramilitaries of the past. They are a combination of both and it is the unique merging of our past and the outworkings of the war on drugs that makes NI unique.

Again you have Bryson on your show. He has stated that over the past few days he has spoken to senior uvf members. The uvf is an illegal organisation, why was he not challenged on this? Is the PSNI going to interview him? Don't think so! @PSNIBelfastE
Just seen someone claim that immigration issues are now dominating their lives. Let's look at the numbers:
2379 asylum seekers.
12,500 active loyalist paramilitaries who hold this place to ransom every year.
People need to be serious & stop with the ridiculous claims.
