Sit down folks, the document is in the house. That’s right, Jamie Bryson’s manifesto has hit the metaphorical shelves. We here at Off The Record read it from front to back and we felt some excerpts were simply too good to go unnoticed. From opposition of gay marriage based on the teachings of a 2000 year old book he probably hasn’t even read to proclaiming that Sinn Fein are using the schooling system to indoctrinate children into their nationalist ways. What follows is our Top 10 special things from the Bryson manifesto.

10

‘As part of immigration’

“I believe that quality housing should be available to all citizens. I believe it is imperative a fair system of housing allocation is designed and maintained so as to ensure that those who have been born in Northern Ireland and those who are British citizens are given priority in Housing allocation”

“Those whose parents or grandparents have been born in N.Ireland should be given preference to those who have come to the Country as part of immigration”

The higher echelons of the security forces

‘In my opinion the Historical Enquiries Team has been used to wage a war against loyalism’

“The PSNI must dispel the perception, which I would be sufficiently sure is actually reality, that they are puppets of Sinn Fein and that they have orders from the higher echelons of the security forces to protect certain political representatives and allow Justice to be circumvented to protect the process. In my opinion the Historical Enquiries Team has been used to wage a war against loyalism with the overall agenda being about forcing loyalism in a certain political direction. The one sided nature of this body is not perception, the facts and figures speak for themselves, it is reality”

The Ulster Human Rights Watch

‘Once you compromise once they then seek more and more. It is never ending’

“It has been proven when dealing with Republicanism, once you compromise once they then seek more and more. It is never ending. It is essential a line in the sand is drawn and it is important for the Government and PSNI to do more to ensure that the peaceful expression of culture does not have a gun held to its head by the threat of agitation or violence by those whose stated aim is still to overthrow the British State and eradicate any cultural or religious expressions by Her Majesty’s Loyal subjects. In providing a solution for the parading issue I support the proposals brought forward and published by the Ulster Human Rights Watch”

7

The brand of socialism

“I disagree with any process to reduce the number of flags erected and/or to curtail the right of individuals or the community as a collective to erect lawful flags. I oppose proposals to criminalise the erection of flags and believe this is merely an attempt to further push forward the diluted‘Shared Society’ brand of socialism envisaged by the Belfast Agreement”

6

Traditional Biblical values

“I totally oppose gay marriage and believe that to support proposals to legalise this would fundamentally undermine the principles of Protestantism. I believe the Ulster Covenant, described by many as the Birth certificate of N.Ireland,was framed by those who relied upon traditional Biblical values and therefore a move away from these principles would be anathema to anyone seeking to uphold Biblical Protestantism”

5

For Dole and Ulster

“The current process of sending those unemployed to fill out application forms and go through very basic training is not only degrading but also stifles the opportunity for individuals to excel themselves.I believe these placements and courses, which become mandatory after a set period of time unemployed, are essentially a waste of money”

4

The word Gerrymandering

‘Local Government reform is essentially the DUP/SF seeking to protect the process by gerrymandering boundaries’

“I believe the local Government reform is essentially the DUP/SF seeking to protect the process by gerrymandering boundaries to ensure that the DUP and SF maintain their current safe seats and the boundaries are designed to make it more difficult for those who seek to oppose them to find any concentrated vote from within working class communities,as most estates have been dwarfed in local boundaries by larger middle class areas”

Anti-British Indoctrination?

“It is my firm assertion that Sinn Fein will seek to spread their anti British dogma via the education system and will use this method to indoctrinate young people with their warped cause. I believe that allowing unrepentant terrorists to control the education of future generations is absurd and to suggest that Sinn Fein will not seek to use their influence over education to brainwash our future generations and to re-write history is sheer folly”

2

Children love fire, right?

“I believe that funding designed for bonfires should be directed to children’s celebrations on the 11th July. Council policy makers have attempted to ride two horses in matters such as these, seeking to entwine funding for cultural celebrations with the actual bonfire. I believe both should be separated and bonfires should continue without any Government funding or constraints”

Stolen from the PUP – unionist unity

‘I am a fierce opponent of the DUP, I am however a realist’

“At least the PUL community are in a position to bring influence to bear and lobby the DUP, therefore I would advise that you vote Unionist right across your voting preferences rather than leaving a position blank or voting for non Unionists. I must re-iterate I am a fierce opponent of the DUP, I am however a realist and accept that it may be a necessary evil in some areas to give one of your lower preferences to the DUP”
