All parties aspiring to be part of the government of Northern Ireland must turn their backs on violence for good, the Democratic Unionists' election manifesto declares.
The DUP's 32-page Assembly Election manifesto, half of which is devoted to the party's agenda for devolved government, also attacked David Trimble's record, claiming the Ulster Unionists could no longer be trusted to represent their community in talks.
The party's manifesto sets out seven tests for a lasting political settlement in NorthernIreland.
These included the conditions that any agreement must have the support of both nationalists and unionists, only those committed to peaceful and democratic means shouldhave any cabinet-style ministerial responsibility and, any relationship with the Republic of Ireland must be accountable to the Assembly within any new agreement.
The manifesto criticised Irish and British government peace process proposals, claiming their joint declaration was a "threat to Ulster" that offered a "raft of concessions" to republicans.
It also portrayed a "nightmare" vision of what Northern Ireland would be like in the next four years if the Ulster Unionists remained the largest voice in unionism.Sinn Féin president Gerry Adams would become Deputy First Minister, the partyclaimed.
