Jim Shannon, DUP MP for Strangford, has welcomed the opportunity to give his oath in Ulster Scot’s in the new sitting of Parliament after the General Election.

“It is so important to keep alive the wonderful culture of this language and show a true representation of Ulster Scots in the mother of all Parliaments.

This is the 4th time now I have given my oath in Ulster Scot’s, and it is so great to showcase this to new MPs and highlight how it is still very much a massive part of culture in Northern Ireland.”
