A DUP peer is seeking to have a "glorifying terrorism" offence included in the UK government's new Troubles legacy legislation making its way through Parliament.He is also seeking to ensure an aggravating factor during sentencing would be any immunity from prosecution for Troubles-related offences granted under the new legacy law.
"This has been led by prominent Sinn Féin politicians who continue to re-traumatise innocent victims by acts of glorification and commemoration of bloodthirsty terrorist murderers.He added: "Innocent victims have seen sports facilities and playparks either being named after terrorists or plaques erected to glorify them.

No more terrorist flags on lamposts during the summer then?
Will that mean that the singing and playing of ALL inflammatory songs, the bonfires and the absolutely non hate filled sectarian OO, will come under this Act?
Bring it on
“Remember lads, put 1912 version in front of everything!”
He and other unionist leaders should start by not endorsing terrorists.
Does that mean Bryson is heading for jail as he calls UVF murderer's defender's of the Union, or are you just talking about nationalism as usual.
Sound so. That go for 12th July celebrations and Orange matches too?
Surely dup must be mad as they would be incriminating themselves as they are linked to UVF and uda loyalism is terrorism
DUP have always glorified their own terrorists and continue to take instruction from loyalist paramilitaries. They disgust me and the majority in NI
That’s the twelfth cancelled then ? 🪤😂
His definition of ‘offence’ appears very selective as usual. This is mostly aimed at Republicans whilst ignoring the Orange Order’s yearly offence. 🧱
Dodds is a first class
The same Nigel Dodds, who as DUP press officer handed out leaflets to journalists on the 10th November 1986 at the Ulster Resistance rally at the Ulster Hall. The same Ulster Resistance who smuggled in Czech machine guns that were used in 70 murders and attempted murders.
Dodds needs reminding of the loyalist paramilitary groups still running around with gun/bombs threatening society’s throughout ni whilst playing happy families with these scum having wee tea/coffee meetings whilst they dictate duponline stance on ni issues 😡😡
Fuĉking ironic from an orange order member and a party that takes its orders from loyalist drug dealing terrorists 😂🤡
So does that mean disband of the orange order then.
Ulster Resistance Nigel Ulster Resistance ! Have you ran this past your policy director Bryson , who glorifies the Loyalist Narco terrorists?
If we believe that all war is terrorism then this is going to a a tricky one to implement. However, I imagine he’s creating his own subset of infringements of the 6th commandment, and seeking to outlaw that.
Some nervous loyalists and DUP reps reading this...
What’s good for the goose, is good for the gander…. In essence I agree with his sentiment, but it has to be across the board.
Starting with UK armed forces day
Jamie Bryson noticeably quiet on this, just about the only adult related article he hasn't retweeted, wonder why.
I hate Sinn Féin. They are the worst. They are really awful. I would jump at the behest of some fancy British Lord to remind Irish people NEVER to support Sinn Féin or Ireland. They are obviously not a threat to British lackeys. I hope Sinn Féin will never bring a United Ireland.
He does realise that this will also effect loyalist and orange order marches? Or was he not intelligent enough to realise that? 😂
Grifter
Jesus that's going to cause a lot of trouble at orange marches.
Surely you don't mean this is (deliberately) ignored?
Great! Can we have July without parades glorifying terrorism?
Of course he did 🤦♂️
Lol this will put the Binfluencer behind bars (where he probably belongs)
I wouldn't mind this if it covers UDA UFF Murals Flegs and all openly Glorfied terrorism!
Does NigelDoddsDUP politically profit from the currency of sectarianism?
