If anyone requires further help with social security issues, problems with HMRC, debt collection […]
@JamieBrysonCPNI Editor@UnionistVoice.com This outlet, as you may guess by the title, is a partisan publication which exists to provide a voice and platform to the unionist community. However, during times such as the crisis we face, our partisan differences fade into insignificance, therefore if there are issues to be raised or highlighted that affect any […]
Editor@Unionistvoice.com @JamieBrysonCPNI I will start this piece by setting out my position clearly, given there will be those who would seek to misrepresent my point for their own agenda. I oppose all crime, and I support the pursuit of criminal activity wherever it takes place. However, I want the pursuit of crime to be equal […]
Editor@Unionistvoice.com @JamieBrysonCPNI On the 19th February the Court of Appeal, upholding an earlier decision of the lower court, delivered one of the most scathing judgements rendered in recent times. The Northern Ireland Charity Commission was found to have been unlawfully delegating their decision making to members of staff. This had allowed an environment to thrive […]

Editor@UnionistVoice.com @JamieBrysonCPNI For those of us who campaigned for Brexit and who are ideologically committed to the idea of national sovereignty and independence, it is a historic moment. What once seemed like a fringe political dream is about to become reality. I have to admit that there were times I doubted whether the establishment would […]
Editor@UnionistVoice.com @JamieBrysonCPNI The headline of the article is “a United Ireland would be good for everyone”. Let us therefore start there; upon what basis does Mr Paris assert a United Ireland would be good for unionists in Northern Ireland, who for over 30 years were subjected to a republican terrorist campaign designed to bring about […]
By Cllr Russell Watton After a week of reflection on the “Stormont Deal”, I think I should now voice my opinion, for what it’s worth. Firstly I cannot believe the DUP agreed to an Irish Language Act and a Commissioner. This is in direct contradiction to repeated pledges and promises. We were told that an […]
