Description

A short clip of footage without voice over showing a march through Portadown by the local branch of Ulster Resistance. The group had been set up in opposition to the Anglo-Irish Agreement and drew criticism from many for appearing to be modelled as a paramilitary organisation. This footage would become famous for showing DUP MP Peter Robinson marching through the streets wearing a red beret, clearly adopting symbols of militarism.
