The Ulster-Scots Agency
I had a text last week to ask me to do an interview. I was busy. This subsequent article and a tv broadcast appeared. The Ulster-Scots Agency - which I attempted to Chair from June '05 - June '09 - issued a statement, saying something like 'Ulster-Scots is always the poor cousin'. This is correct. It was October 2004 (coming up on 20 years ago) when I was approached to become the Chair of the Agency. I still have some correspondence from that time, and lots of thoughts on that. Maybe a subject for a future post here.
