Apparenty the last straw for the team was "Fatt Matt's" insistence on having an obituary for Loyalist terrorist David Irvine in the February edition in which he attacked republicans and pushed a strong unionist line. The article was headed 'personal opinion' and infuriated Searchlight readers from the far left as Searchlight has always pushed the Provo line. Collins apparently also attended the funeral of the UVF chief no doubt using the the vast sums of money pumped into the organisation by the trade union movement to get pissed and sing sectarian songs.

It will be a big blow to Collins and his enormous ego that he can no longer get drunk and violent at other peoples expense so may we also be seeing "Matt" and Lowles fighting in a pub car park near us very soon?
