Very odd comment, now deleted, as the Garvaghy road residents are of a Christian background too, and as it happens, Catholic tradition has disobedience to unjust law as a fully orthodox part of its theology.

A world where a twist ending is repurposed as a video title. where a thing's climax has been removed, leaving an advertisment for the gap where it used to be. such things are commonplace in. the twilight zone

Incredible. When E—n M—k & his crew obliterated USAID in a weekend, they deleted a vast trove of publicly-funded knowledge: the Development Experience Clearinghouse. A Canadian high school student (!) happened to have downloaded the entire thing for a project. AidData has now posted it for all.

Before reimagining development data, remember what we’ve learned
Why we’re publishing a free, searchable, and ungated archive featuring a quarter-century of USAID evaluation reports.

Terror acts orchestrated and carried out by the proscribed UDA & UVF. No COBRA meeting and a whitewashing of terror involvement because the North of Ireland isn’t seen as somewhere deserving safety, never mind human & civil rights. Paramilitary groups are still celebrating their pogrom operation.

Once again, the community and volunteer sector have been left to pick up the pieces, a sector that is already over stretched and deliberately underfunded. Meanwhile, well funded gangs who claim to represent community and the interest of "ordinary people" are tearing the city apart.

As I wrote at the time of the Ballymena pogroms, I'm old enough to remember when the LVF attacked the home of disabled child because he was insuficciently Protestant. I'm old enough to remember this because it happened in 2024. www.irishexaminer.com/lifestyle-co...
Last July, the family of Jessy Clark, a nine-year-old boy with multiple serious disabilities, were allocated a newbuild bungalow in the Ballycraigy estate in Antrim town. 

The home was purpose-built to provide for Jessy’s medical needs, allowing him the facility to bathe and use his wheelchair, freedoms he’d been denied in the hospital bed he’d been living in for years. 

Shortly before the family were due to move in, the house was attacked with bricks and paint bombs.

Soon its boarded-up windows featured graffiti of crosshairs, and slogans declared that all such housing was for “locals only”. 

The LVF-affiliated group responsible for this were implicated in a several other attacks in the area, driving eight African families out of their homes in the few weeks previous.

Deducing this took little by way of detective work, since the group posted laminated signs around the area declaring “No Undesirables… No Multiculturalism” and warnings to “keyboard warriors” that their home might be next.

This is a fine point, worth noting also in July 1920 Catholics & socialists were violently expelled from Belfast's shipyards & mills. Days of violence followed: 19 dead, 100s hurt, £0.5m property damage. Organised by the Belfast Protestant Association, encouraged & congratulated by Carson and Craig.

This is about to smash the £140k mark. Anaka, PPR, CATU and others have been working relentlessly through this. Making sure people are safe, have food/essentials if they're stuck and getting people beds for the night. Responding to the actions of the worst of us by being the very best of us.

At no point in PMQs or the statement and questions that followed did anyone mention Loyalists. Starmer said those who incited it would be prosecuted. Directly afterward he sat down with an MP *who had incited it* to listen to her demand that the border be raised. No SDLP or APNI MPs present just DUP
