The head line should
“Kneecap will now receive the £14,000 (€16,000) grant and it will split it between two community groups - one on either side of the Belfast peace line"
Good on them.

The House of Lords really don’t like the NI Protocol Bill
“The Bill is unprecedented in its cavalier treatment of Parliament, the EU and the Government’s international obligations”

So this can be rationalised?? Until bonfires are controlled, regulated, legal, risk assessedand each properly managed, including aftercare, they should be banned on grounds they themselves - most, not all, - are hate crimes.

Seán Treacy was one of the leaders of the Third Tipperary Brigade of the IRA during the Irish War of Independence. Why should he not be celebrated in Dublin at Croke Park? America celebrates the 4th July. Should it not be celebrated? How did he victimise unionism here?

Is this Doug Beattie admitting he has seen Brish Army bias against the Irish here? How they disrespected the Irish? How they were abusive, even violent towards us?
This isn't the insight Doug may have intended, methinks.

The Irish are nothing like the British. We have different sports, different history - one that is riddled by Britain and not in a good way, a different culture. No where greater seen than in NI.

Of course there is a difference. If a london plane lands in Paris, instead of say 20 out of 250 passports and papers needing checked, now all 250 ( if there are no Irish or other EU citizens on board) need checked and stamped! It is time consuming and delays are consequential!

Not only is the Protocol lawful, it does NOT need ‘ cross community consent’.
No one, not loyalists, unionists, the British Government, media, can use that term again, nor interpret the GFA in such an untruthful way.

I see Nigel Dodds had to withdraw his ‘glorification of terrorism’ clause in the Legacy Bill on 29/03
If you read through the speeches you will see this was uniquely directed at the Nationalist community and Sinn Fein. #RulesForOneSide

No, the GFA does not mention borders East / West , only That both Irish and British Governments maintain cooperation E/W . Strand 2 mentions trade North/South. The Protocol maintains that trade.

The DUPs actions have led to the trouble on the streets. They initially accepted it. They even planned to use it to enhance NI businesses . Then they realised they were losing their electorate. That was the turning point.

But we ALWAYS got frozen Donegal Catch and fresh fish, shellfish, langoustines, prawns & eels from Downpatrick ,Antrim, Kilkeel and other ports north and south on this Island. And meats? NI is food self sufficient and beef is farmed under all island protection. He is gaslighting

Toy soldiers, all thugs, extortionists and dealers along with a few old men. This is what happened because the UKG did not oversee their disbandment and disarmament in line with the Good Friday Agreement., another aspect of international agreements they did not honour.
