PUP ATTACKS SF GUN LICENSE MOVE
The Progressive Unionist Party and a victims group have criticised a move to grant a SF councillor a firearms certificate. Councillor James McCary was granted the certificate after a number of death threats were made to him by Loyalists.
The PUP's Billy Hutchinson has criticised the decision, saying members of his party had applied for a firearms license but were turned down. Meanwhile Brian McConnell of the victims group Fair described the move as inappropriate.
