Winston Irvine pleads guilty to firearms offences

Leading loyalist Winston Irvine has pleaded guilty to firearm and ammunition offences.

Irvine, 49, of Ballysillan Road in north Belfast and co-accused Robin Workman, 53, of Shore Road in Larne, County Antrim, were due to go on trial at Belfast Crown Court in front of a judge sitting alone without a jury.

However, following legal discussions, lawyers for both men made applications for their clients to be re-arraigned on all charges they faced.

Standing in the dock, both men entered guilty pleas that they possessed firearms and ammunition in suspicious circumstances.
