George Green (politician)

George Green was a Northern Irish unionist politician.

Green was the chairman of the Ulster Special Constabulary Association (USCA), a group which focussed on opposition to the Irish Republican Army.

[1] He was elected to North Down Borough Council in 1973 as an independent loyalist.

[3] Through his role in the USCA, he was a prominent leader of the Ulster Workers' Council strike,[1] and was able to gain election to the Northern Ireland Constitutional Convention.

[3] Soon after, he left Vanguard to join the United Ulster Unionist Party split,[1] but this was collapsing by 1980, and Green instead joined James Kilfedder's Ulster Popular Unionist Party, for which he very narrowly missed being elected to the Northern Ireland Assembly, 1982.
