Best wishes to Ben, a politician of powerful unionist convictions who saw the Protocol issues and dangers more clearly than some local politicians.

Issues crystallising between those who wish to play down, even ignore, the evident constitutional detriment of implementing the Protocol and our alignment with EU single market and those who recognise the legal and constitutional realities which flow from acquiescing in EU sovereignty over NI trade, commerce and our manufacturing economy.

Timely expose of the legal and constitutional consequences of clinging to the Protocol and the price of the folly of promoting and prioritising EU single market access - the worst of all worlds, condominium/colonial rule.

TUV blasts proposed Provo payday for terrorist relatives
Statement by TUV leader Jim Allister:
“Years after a pension for innocent victims of violence was agreed, there are countless cases still caught up in bureaucracy. Even obviously deserving cases have moved at a snail’s pace. It is shameful that the victims’ commissioner has used his final major contribution not to highlight the ridiculous delays in getting pensions approved for deserving innocents, but to call for a payment of £10,000, or more, to be made to the relatives of not just victims but also victim-makers.
“There is no moral or other justification for bereavement payments to the relatives of those who lost their lives in seeking to take the lives of others. We’ve had enough Provo paydays.
“To have the so called ‘Victims’ Commissioner’ seeking to circumvent the law - which even in traffic accidents provides no compensation for the relatives of those killed by their own reckless driving and which denies criminal injury compensation to perpetrators - is a telling reflection on his failure in office. Of course, this poison flows from the equating of victim and victim-makers in the terror friendly definition of ‘victim’ ensconced in the 2006 legislation as part of Tony Blair’s pandering to terrorists and their ilk.
“This latest manifestation of societal empathy with terrorism must be swiftly rejected by the government.”

RT by @JimAllister: You can argue for fidelity to Art 6 of the Acts of Union, or you can argue for NI having dual market access: but you can’t argue for both.
The DUP need to be honest about that.
If willing to forsake Art 6, then own that & make the case for it.

The access to the EU single market created by the Protocol comes at the price of subjection to EU law - laws we don’t make and can’t change and laws increasingly different from those in GB, but identical to and tied into those governing trade and commerce in ROI.
So, anyone who thinks such has no constitutional import and does not assist the creation of an all-Ireland economy is dangerously deluded.
