Paramilitary feud 'may be coming to end'

There is reason to hope a violent feud between loyalist paramilitary groups may be drawing close to an end, a senior unionist politician said today.

David Ervine, the leader of the Progressive Unionist Party (PUP), suggested there were reasons to believe the bloody row between the Ulster Volunteer Force (UVF) and the Loyalist Volunteer Force (LVF) may be close to resolution.
