Unionist Voice Editorial
Editor@UnionistVoice.com @JamieBrysonCPNI As unionism and loyalism unites like never before in opposition to the Betrayal Act, which seeks to impose an economic United Ireland, the Ulster Unionist Party are engaging in a scorched earth policy. The UUP previously sought to form a de-facto pact with the nationalist SDLP in the form of the humiliating ‘Vote […]
@JamieBrysonCPNI Editor@UnionistVoice.com With intense focus on the loyalist community in recent weeks due to serious discontent around the proposed Betrayal Act designed to create an economic United Ireland, the mainstream media has predictably turned to some academics, semi-retired security journalists and commentators who would have traditionally, in the minds of some, been able to offer […]
@JamieBrysonCPNI Editor@UnionistVoice.com This website spent many months warning that there was a growing anger within loyalism. The liberal elite establishment- whose window into loyalism comes from those who have made a career out of the ‘peace process’- poured scorn on such warnings. Their contacts told them all was fine, indeed even some suggested that a […]
@JamieBrysonCPNI Editor@UnionistVoice.com The governance arrangements for Northern Ireland are given authority in domestic law by the Northern Ireland Act 1998, and this is underpinned by the British-Irish Agreement, an international treaty which includes at Annex 1 the political agreement of the 1998 multi-party talks, commonly known as the Belfast Agreement. Section 26 of the Northern […]
@JamieBrysonCPNI Editor@UnionistVoice.com The red line that has always been the one unifying core issue within loyalism, and across the wider unionist family, is- as you would expect- the union.

@JamieBrysonCPNI Editor@UnionistVoice.com There has been a nauseating storm whipped up with many joining in as a means of demonstrating their own righteousness and moral nobility. It is, regardless of how it is dressed up, bullying. Joining in to abuse the couple and amass around them with virtual pitch forks is the popular thing to do, […]
@JamieBrysonCPNI Editor@UnionistVoice.com The continuous appeasement of the Irish Government, being feted in the language of friends and allies, is the root cause of the current abominable proposals which would deliver a fully-fledged economic United Ireland. The Irish Government are no friends of the United Kingdom or the British population in Northern Ireland. As correctly identified […]
Editor@UnionistVoice.com @JamieBrysonCPNI In my opinion Willie Frazer would have never wanted to be remembered for the stunts or the controversies over Facebook videos or comments. He often said to me “it takes a wise man to act the fool. Those who talk the most about what they did against the IRA usually contributed the least”. […]
@JamieBrysonCPNI Editor@UnionistVoice.com Even the most casual political observer will have noticed in recent weeks how the DUP have been subtly trying to move themselves towards a historic climbdown. They have sought to turn the Titanic in a bathtub and hope that no one noticed. Strategists in the appeasement wing of the DUP, led by the […]
@JamieBrysonCPNI Editor@UnionistVoice.com In today’s Sunday World Jim McDowell devoted his column to analysing my contribution to BBC Northern Ireland’s Stephen Nolan show last Friday. I said that in my personal view the loyalists would be watching Brexit very closely to see if any of the potential outcomes weakened the constitutional position of Northern Ireland. To […]
