Each square represents the death of ten children in Palestine. Unfurled today on the Garvaghy Road. Created by a diverse group of people across Ireland.

That 1980s boom he’s talking about is because we sold off the family silver, which lead to decades of the highest energy & rail fares in Europe plus sewage in rivers.. oh and being held to ransom by fat cats warning that if we want anything to improve we need to pay all over again. Fuck off Simon.

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.

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.

The question asked was whether they would be willing to "consider changes, such as changing the flag and anthem and joining the Commonwealth, to make a united Ireland more acceptable to unionists" which puts a completely different spin on the results. Ridiculous way to pose a poll question

The youngest person his pager attack killed was 9-year-old Fatima Abdullah, who had just started 4th grade. The pager was on a table when it went off and she picked it up to take to her dad. It exploded in her face and reports said it covered the room in her blood. She wanted to learn English.

The male GAA codes are built on the unseen work of women sacrificing their own free time to do the work of looking after children & elderly relatives that men who spend 3 nights training,2 nights at the gym, plus weekends at matches are consciously not doing. It thrives at the expense of women.

This is not misinformation. That's what I normally cover - something out of context, an opinion quoted as fact, or a deliberate misinterpretation... This is none of those. This is full-on disinformation. Because that is NOT from the Express. It is entirely fake😱 🧵 1/10
Lembit Opik tweet:

Burnham's big migration plan: take 4,000 stranded migrants from Ceuta, bring them to the UK and put them up in luxury hotels. Americans look at Europe in despair. 

Express Headline: Burnham's migrant, Campbell, 1,000 stranded in Ceuta to be brought to UK. The Prime Minister proposes flying thousands of stranded migrants from Spanish enclave to Britain and housing them in London hotels.
