More patrols after feud violence
From The BBC: The number of officers patrolling north Belfast has increased in response to an escalating loyalist paramilitary feud.

There has been growing violence in a dispute between the Loyalist Volunteer Force and the Ulster Volunteer Force.

A taxi company part-owned by a prominent loyalist has been forced to close and several people have been beaten and intimidated.

The PSNI doubled the number of officers on duty in the north of the city on Tuesday night.

Superintendent Gary White said the violence must stop."There is a fear within the community," he said."I reassure the community of north Belfast the police will do all in our power: "We're drafting in additional resources; we're bringing in a team of specialist detectives to help us to look at the criminality that's involved here.

1. Shouldn't Paisley be sanctioned for this
There is at least as much connection between him and this as there is between the IRA and the bank robbery.
