DUP has not closed the door to Sinn Fein
READING the letter from ‘Ex-Security Forces’ in last week’s Star i was struck by their loyalty to a political party and the praise which was afforded to the DUP for working for all in the City of Lisburn and how they maintained a firmly closed door to Sinn Fein in occupying any positions of influence on Lisburn City Council.
I wish to point out to the letter writer they are inaccurate when they state the DUP have closed out Sinn Fein from chair and vice chair positions.
I recall a Sinn Fein councillor holding the chair of Lisburn District Policing Partnership and Sinn Fein are currently holding the chairmanship of Lisburn City Council Strategic Committee.
I would say, having all party representation is more democratic and equal in working for the people of Lisburn.
