  Former members of the security forces and their families must be treated with fairness and justice after the government "opened pandora's box" on legacy.

The Ulster Unionist Party (UUP) has criticized recent decisions by the UK government and courts, claiming they are aiding the IRA in rewriting history. Specifically, the UUP is concerned about the government's Legacy Act, which they argue prevents justice for victims of the Troubles by offering immunity to perpetrators in exchange for information. Additionally, a High Court ruling that deemed the government's refusal to hold an inquiry into the Omagh bombing as unlawful has been highlighted. UUP leader Doug Beattie expressed frustration over these developments, suggesting that they not only fail to deliver justice but also allow the IRA to manipulate historical narratives. He emphasized the need for a balanced approach to legacy issues that respects the experiences of all victims and does not favor one community's narrative over another.
