“The gang killed four Catholics during a robbery in October 1975. Over the next few months Murphy and his accomplices began to abduct, torture and murder random Catholics they dragged off the streets late at night, Murphy hacking each victim’s throats open with a butcher’s knife. They killed three Catholic men in this manner.[4] None of the victims had any connection to the IRA or any other republican group”

The PUP have that sorry baggage, they are also pro-brothel, which is convenient because their paramilitary wing, is involved in prostitution.

“Why do you not split with these paramilitary organisations?

“The Progressive Unionist Party have debated this issue at length, as it is clear from political polls that the link between the PUP and UVF/RHC has been at times an electoral liability. However the vast majority of PUP members have concluded that for the good of Northern Ireland it is our responsibility to provide political analyses to that constituency.”‘

‘Meanwhile, the UVF has set up its own ‘inquiry’ into Lisa’s disappearance, which is running in parallel with the official police investigation. In a macabre twist to the tragedy, and apparently without irony, the UVF has appointed convicted murderer Samuel Cooke to head its ‘investigation’. He was one of five loyalists jailed in 1994 for the sectarian murder of 26-year-old Catholic mother Anne Marie Smyth in 1992. Her killers strangled her and cut her throat, after she was lured to a party in east Belfast by a group of UVF men drinking in a local loyalist social club.”

The thing about the English feminists, is a general lack of irony.
