There has been much talk about Ulster Unionist leader Tom Elliott calling some Sinn Fein supporters scum.
I would have to agree with the following:
"Terrorists around the world don’t get called nice names except in this part of the UK: we call them Deputy First Minister, Sinn Fein Ministers etc. Yes, Sinn Fein now support the PSNI. But they continue to defend the murders they carried out against their neighbours. Their message is not clear especially when it comes to the so-called dissidents.
Tom Elliott may have been provoked into using such a term as 'scum'. But many people in the Republic of Ireland, the UK and further afield would also call Sinn Fein 'scum' until they say sorry for the broken lives and heartache they caused to their families."

And now David McClarty has demanded Elliott withdraws the remarks in return for rejoining the UUP.
