Jimmy Birch Jimmy Birch (born c. 1970〔Josephine Long, (Flags protest: UDA speaks out ), bbc.co.uk〕) is a Northern Irish loyalist paramilitary leader and activist. As of 2014 Birch is the head of the East Belfast Brigade of the Ulster Defence Association (UDA) and thus a member of the Inner Council that controls the organisation. ==Brigadier== Birch joined the UDA as a 17-year-old and during his long service he was never imprisoned, in contrast to any of his contemporaries.〔 Birch became Brigadier in 2005 when the flamboyant Jim Gray was expelled from the organisation for persistent racketeering. As leader, Birch initially purged the East Belfast UDA of the "Spice Boys", a flamboyant group of racketeers close to Gray. This was later relaxed, with William Murphy in particular welcomed back into the fold. He had initially been opposed to decommissioning and had reportedly told a meeting of East Belfast UDA members that their weapons would not be handed in. Subsequently however Birch revised his position and a cache of East Belfast Brigade weapons were given up for decommissioning.
