Produktbeschreibung

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Hugh Ross is a Presbyterian minister and member of the Orange Order, who was previously the leader of the now defunct Ulster Independence Movement. Ross began his political involvement with the Ulster Clubs which emerged in the 1980s to galvanize opposition to the Anglo-Irish Agreement and appeared on the BBC's local news programme in August 1986 to launch an attack on cross-border co-operation. Eventually the UIM developed out of this group and Ross became leader of the main avowedly Ulster nationalist organisation in Northern Ireland's history. Ross enjoyed relatively high vote shares as a candidate at both the Upper Bann by-election of 1990 and the 1994 European elections. He headed the list for the UIM at the 1996 elections for the Northern Ireland Forum although he failed to get elected and has since largely left politics, emerging from time to timeto write articles for the Ulster Third Way journal, Ulster Nation
