THe NI Parades Commission has made a catastrophic error in judgement in allowing the Orange Order to parade down the Garvaghy Road. Having had the High Court quash their previous determination regarding the parade, they have now reversed almost 30 years of consistency and created a major crisis.

Paisley and Trimble on the Garvaghy Road in 1995. What a disgrace that the Parades Commission is allowing a sectarian triumphalist Orange march here again. I met with Garvaghy Road residents on Thursday. They simply want to live in peace. We stand with the residents.

If Andy Burnham is already so weak that he can't stand up to his MPs, then he's going to be an even worse prime minister than Starmer was.
Whatever Labour do, the Boriswave will have to be reversed. The next government will have no other choice. And if that means cancellations of settlement, and even of acquired citizenships, then so be it.
We should be honest about this - it's time for Reform and the Tories to announce that they will reverse the Boriswave, whatever it takes.

Farage's racism was noted when he was a nobody. But sure, he's not a racist. 'Farage, who earns his living as a City commodity-broker, is a man who often used words such as "n*gg*r" and "n*g-n*g" in the pub after committee meetings.' (Oct 1999) #politicslive www.theguardian.com/uk/1999/oct/...
Until 1997, under the leadership of Dr Alan Sked, UKIP's membership form included a clause stressing that racists were not allowed to join. Soon after Sked's departure, however, the clause mysteriously disappeared. The new leaders, Michael Holmes and Nigel Farage - who are now both MEPs - also set out to "combine our protest" with other anti-Euro campaigners. In his UKIP election leaflet this year, Holmes paid tribute to "citizens' patriotic protest groups" such as Save Our Sterling - presumably unaware that Save Our Sterling was run by the BNP.
