Next time an MLA tells you there is no money for health, education etc Or the next time a racist tells you that immigrants are costing us too much.. 😡😡😡

Drumcree Orangemen desecrate the memory of the dead Seven people - three men, one woman & three children - were killed by loyalist terrorists because of Drumcree in the 1990s. I covered the terrible events. Is this forgotten? What’s happening now mocks their loss. In @heraldscotland.bsky.social

Fun fact: these three people currently at Drumcree Church in breach of the Parades Commission determination were aged 4, 5 and 10 when the original Drumcree Sunday march issue first blighted us. 4, 5, and 10.

Just to fully underline how spiteful this shit is for those unaware: On the left is the route the Orange Order have been ordered to take for the past 3 decades without trouble. On the right is the route that has brought hundreds of cops to Drumcree. The only motivation is sectarian antagonism.

So many former flashpoints in Northern Ireland are now peaceful. Residents and the Order have, to their credit, sat down and worked something out. Would have been great if Garvaghy was the same but unfortunately a section of unionism wanted this fight.

Hard to think of a more depressing and pointless sight. Imagine trying to resurrect this nonsense. Unionists have clearly run out of ideas and want to collapse Stormont but the question is - what comes next?

I plead with people not to propagate their "it won't make a difference; his supporters love him" gloom. Actually, Farage is on the ropes and he didn't get there by himself. He's there because people continue to believe resistance does make a difference. It's also wrong on the facts. 1/3

There have been some horrendous cases going through our courts over recent weeks, and which I didn't post about. All were local men and they'd attacked current or former partners, as is the case for the majority of violent assaults and rapes.

'No arrests made'. They have been completely emboldened. And we know how this works: they will do it again. In greater numbers. A catastrophic and far-reaching failure of policing.

For this week’s entry in my #calling353 series in @thejournal.ie I reflect upon the Michael Collins movie turning 30, its long gestation period and if the time is right for a new take on this story. jrnl.ie/7145278

How 30 years has turned Liam Neeson's Michael Collins from 'Shirley Temple' to cultural icon
The big fear (from abroad) in 1996 was that the Neil Jordan-directed movie would serve as republican propaganda. Now maybe it’s time to revisit the story.

Not to be some wild-eyed innocent, but I think it should be slightly bigger news that The Lancet have crunched the numbers and found that Musk's USAID cuts will kill 14 million people. And that's just by 2030. That's 9,600 people a day, every day, until the next world cup rolls around.

All this talk of banning kids from social media. The real danger is adults like this on FB. Chatting to your mates is crime now. They are a cricket team btw having a laugh after training or a game.
A FB post by Our Northern Ireland voice  whatever that is. Showing a photo of 15 men having a chat in a car park. According to the post they are foreign. So apparently we have to be vigilant in case of something or other.
