No unionist politician will ever take a stand against loyalists paramilitaries, if he/she ever did such a thing they can kiss their voter base goodbye. There is a structered process to publicize as much bad press against republicans as possible and to keep harping on anything that fits their anti-good Friday agreement agenda. There is definitely a concentrated effort to whitewash any wrongs conmmitted by loyalists, this is obvious this past few weeks - so what else is new? -- it has been like that for decades.
