Ulster Orchestra saved by Sinn Fein?
mainIt is being reported that a budget has been agreed for 2015/16, carried over the opposition of mainstream parties by the former political wing of the Provisional IRA.
It is further leaked that ‘the executive is to give several million pounds to Department for Regional Development for street lighting and also money to help save Ulster Orchestra in the January monitoring round.’
It is to be urgently hoped that they do not allocate the money to an unchanged board.
UPDATE: But it looks like they will. See here.
Maybe Sinn Fein could “drop a bomb” on the UO board, in a manner of speaking.
Not funny! I lost an irreplaceable Innocent friend to one of those.
No fun intended. These are the same folk.
