The Ulster Unionist Party Leader, Mike Nesbitt MLA has tonight repeated his condemnation of violence.
Mr Nesbitt said, “To be clear, let me repeat yet again, violence is wrong, legally and morally, and if perpetrated by unionists, tactically counter-productive, not an equal and opposite reaction to republican aggression.’
“What unionism needs today is brains, not brawn. We need an analysis, a strategy and an agreed outcome.’
“I am happy to talk to anyone, if they commit to repent and desist from violence.’
