Serious Question - Why Do the Orange Order Use Jamie Bryson?
Not rage bait or political bait or even specific to the current Harvaghy Road situation.
Genuinely, why do the Orange Order use Jamie Bryson as a legal representative?
Surely if you want to engage in a legal process and give yourself the best chance of success you would hire a top end legal team?
Why would you ever let a mouthpiece with no legal qualifications be part of it?
I understand why he is there, he is trying to keep relevant in unionism, I can even understand why they want him there to try and drive broader support from those who back him across NI.
I just don't understand why he is a legal advisor or allowed anywhere near the negotiating table.
If I was part of the lodge I would be wanting a top end legal team and a negotiator who is trained in negotiations with years of expertise.
Like it is almost as if they want to lose...
Am I missing something here?
