Transcript of Gary McMichael's doorstep on exit from Lancaster House following UDP's expulsion from the talks, 26 January 1998

Writing Peace: David Trimble Collection

Gary McMichael, in his statement on 26 January 1998, addresses the Ulster Democratic Party's (UDP) exclusion from the negotiations at Lancaster House. He expresses disappointment over the decision, which he believes is a fait accompli influenced by other political parties, except for the PUP, Women's Coalition, and the Labour Party. McMichael emphasizes the UDP's unwavering commitment to the Mitchell Principles and the peace process, despite their exclusion. He also defends the UDP's efforts to end violence and maintains that the party will continue to work towards a positive outcome for Northern Ireland, while criticizing the perceived unfairness of their removal from the negotiations.
