The Loyalist Communities Council (LCC) is “finished” as an organisation following its chairman’s public appeal for clemency for a convicted paedophile. belfasttelegraph.co.uk/sunday-life/lo… belfasttelegraph.co.uk/sunday-life/lo…







I’ve just been interviewing @Keir_Starmer for @BBCr4today who says he met the police officers who tasered the suspect in the Golders Green stabbing “I want everybody just to imagine what it might be like. You're trying to arrest someone who has already attacked two people and has no regard for life. We know that tasers were fired. I know from my own experience with the police, that there are only two shots in a taser, and once you've shot them, there's nothing left. There's a guy on the ground, he's got a rucksack on. And I don't know what was going through the mind of those officers, but if I was there, I'd be thinking, he's going to detonate something. He's going to blow me up and everybody around here. In those circumstances, I think you can quite see why what could have gone through their mind is, we need to do whatever we can to disable this guy." He added: "Now, when I then see Zak Polanski come out and retweet or support a criticism of that, I think it's disgraceful... He's not fit to lead any political party." Full interview on @bbcr4today tomorrow from 7am





Can’t quite get my head round this man David Campbell’s attitude to sexual abuse of children.

A former chair of the Ulster Unionist Party and founding member of the Loyalist Communities Council has said he does not regret providing a convicted child predator with a character reference. belfasttelegraph.co.uk/news/courts/fo…
