The state broadcaster, Nolan, in going too far to make “someone else’s” point, imputes one act of supposed open disobedience by O’Neill and Carroll with “anarchism” and end of respect for all authority tout court. And the justification for that is what exactly? Do we live in Russia?

The contention that anyone is “bound to respect the courts” is a strategic posture. The law is saturated with ambiguity. It isn’t clear that the residents have lost the right to protest, and the ineptitude of the PC could be put to bed by the police & SOS. www.belfasttelegraph.co.uk/comment/as-t...

As the First Minister behaves like a medieval monarch, flouting courts she’s bound to respect, Stormont is lurching towards collapse

O’Neill’s view of her power akin to that of Richard Nixon, and has profoundly disturbing implications in other areas

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.

In 2025, politicians from the DUP, TUV and UUP complained publicly and in the former two cases made frivolous police reports about a drag queen posing for one photo outside a church in Omagh. Cultural sensitivity for thee, but not for me.

The precipitating cause is the sheer pettiness of what the DUP wants to accomplish for this place. The electoral culture war cannon was first fired with Parachute Regiment tweet, supporting lying mass murderers, and have been dead set on manoeuvring the Executive into a collapse ever since.

If this reveals anything, it has to be the shallow regard Unionist politicians still have for their neighbours, as little more than atavists. Such as the “orange in the flag” taunt. As if there is no distinguishing between that and the sect formed over a century later from the Williamite settlement.

When I watched Louis Theroux’s manosphere documentary I had the same thought. The absence of empathy and the resentful failure to come to terms with the reality that life isn’t always going to be stable or fulfilling is a post literate phenomenon.

Today’s parades decision has overshadowed reporting about what was laid out in court about Sarah Montgomery's murder - she was 32wks pregnant, beaten to death by the father of her children with a water bottle he was bought for Father’s Day. So many determined to make this dangerous place worse

As Lincoln said, any man can endure adversity, but if you want to test his character, give him power. The parades commission is a great sinecure for the box tickers who were humiliated, so they appeased rather than have the NIO sack them. The price of W/C Catholic rights being the default one as per

The main example of Orwellian crimethink that I know of today. Not that Israel is an international criminal - that’s normal person opinion - but that it is a deliberate consequence of the US and their foreign policy vassals in Europe to strategically support its project of ethnic expansionism.

This was why the crazy leftists did things like e.g. wave Palestinian flags and have meetings talking about how action was urgently needed to avert ethnic cleansing and genocide. This 100% correct assessment was said at the time to be insane, obsessive and wildly extreme.

It’s even worse than this: the wacky left had been saying for years before this that Israeli society was very clearly being prepped and radicalised for an increasingly imminent Day Of Reckoning, when the army would do What Must Be Done.

On October 8 2023, Ruth Aylett, the crankademic mother of Owen Jones wrote the Israeli response to the Hamas massacre still unfolding would be either genocide or ethnic cleansing. That's how quickly her ilk came out with these words.

The unfolding events in Israel and Palestine are deeply alarming.
We need an immediate ceasefire and urgent de-escalation to prevent any further loss of life.
And we need a route out of this tragic cycle of violence: ending the occupation is the only means of achieving a just and lasting peace.

Netanyahu has apparently told the population of Gaza to evacuate as they plan to flatten the place. Since there is nowhere for people to go this is a genocidal statement. Or if they let people leave then it is ethnic cleansing on the grand scale.

It has to be bothersome to be reminded of the one English politician who refused to reserve his views on this place to a private opinion. That’s the problem with the governance of this state: everything is just “a job”, disconnected from the honest defence of any conviction.

I can’t see how anyone can see a Garvaghy parade justified while at the same time being honest. If one party only has the choice of being there, then the superior right obviously falls to those who aren’t making the choice. But Unionism again mistake being seen to do something with an effective move

In fact, there are two correct questions, both without rational dependence on each other, and the one about racist motivations obviously comes into focus the more the one on academic standards becomes undermined by its demonstrable pretentiousness. Dawkins isn’t and never has been at all sharp.
