To Hell or Ballycraigy!
UVF plan to push terror rivals into Antrim estate

THE UVF is planning to drive LVF remnants in north Down across the Lagan into exile in Co Antrim.
And, UVF bosses are preparing for another Garnerville-style mass invasion - this time in Ballysillan, north Belfast, before forcing their rivals to Ballycraigy, in Antrim.
Local commanders in east Belfast and north Down have been ordered to concentrate on pushing the remaining small knot of LVF activists and associates out of Holywood, where they fled to, after being forced to leave the nearby Garnerville area.
But, a heavy PSNI presence in Holywood, since Wednesday, has prevented the UVF from repeating their saturation tactics in Garnerville, which intimidated LVF opponents from the area, last Sunday and Monday.
But, a reliable source told Sunday Life: “The UVF leadership wants them out of Holywood, and they won’t let them move down to Bangor, nor will the UDA. Neither organisation wants the LVF about them, because of the trouble they cause.
“The UVF intends to hit the dozen or so flats and houses, occupied by the LVF, in Holywood, and force them out,” one source revealed.
The UVF expects what remains of the organisation in east Belfast and Holywood to decamp to Ballysillan, in north Belfast.
“The UVF feels that it can deploy enough men in Ballysillan to intimidate the LVF out of there, just as they have done in east Belfast, and plan to do in Holywood and ultimately drive the LVF to Ballycraigy, in Antrim, well out of the way, and out of striking distance”.
