What disbandment would mean for the UVF | Allison Morris explains
Manage episode 493394772 series 3379610
Senior loyalists and Key members of the Northern Ireland office have dismissed allegations that The UVF are on the verge of disbanding. One reported condition for the group’s disbandment was the formation of a 240-strong armed 'close protection team' to provide security for its ageing leadership - that suggestion has been branded 'farcical'. How close really are the UVF to disbanding, why are figures like Lord Alderdice saying its time to stop transition talks, and what would a transition look like?
Belfast Telegraph’s Allison Morris joins Olivia Peden to answer some of the big questions.
