When illegal isn't really illegal, or is it?

In todays BBC news Belfast woman Tracey Coulter accused the UDA of an arson attempt on her house and this got me thinking. The UDA are a proscribed (illegal) organisation in Norn Iron so why hasn't Jackie McDonald UDA leader been arrested?

McDonald has been named time and time again in the media as UDA leader something he has never contested yet he swans about Stormont, meets the 'mainstream' political leadership on a regular basis and has even been on cosy trips to Wales with the PSNI.

So it must be asked why has the leader of an illegal loyalist paramilitary group immunity from prosecution?

What provision is there in legislation for the PSNI & the political leaders in Stormont to consort with alleged known terrorist leaders?

Why are the political parties not demanding answers?

Time and time again the DUP have been happy to play the Democrat card, yet consort with terrorists and malcontents, the picture below is then DUP MP William McCrea who quite happily shared a platform with LVF founder and terrorist leader Billy 'King Rat' Wright.

 And despite all this they continue to claim they are democrats!
