In a surprise to absolutely no one, it turns out those who some lauded as having "legitimate concerns" actually turned out to be violent thugs and domestic abusers. It was never about protecting women and children. It's always been about racism, end of.

"Politicians who have used this issue as some kind of wedge issue against trans people." Cllr Anthony Flynn told That's TV he disagrees with recent political criticisms of a drag queen story time event.

I have been in regular contact with PSNI in East Belfast over the past couple of weeks, regarding a vigilante group patrolling the streets. Does one of them have a recent criminal conviction for violence? Also if the Justice Minister, who is an MLA for the area, where is she?

Street vigilantism isn’t about “protecting women & children”, it’s always about control. Vile racists and alleged animal abusers have no place patrolling our streets or demanding documentation. The PSNI & Executive’s silence has let this fester.

Don't be blaming immigrants for no social housing. Don't be blaming immigrants for 1 in 4 of NI being on NHS waiting lists. Blame nearly three decades of a Stormont Executive who have only delivered incompetence, division, sectarianism and mediocrity. youtube.com/shorts/uVj6oYO…

SDLP & Alliance cruising around Lough Neagh filming “concern” videos… the same parties that pushed the Going for Growth disaster that destroyed it. Nothing says irony like arsonists turning up to watch the fire they lit.

For 27 years, our environment has been badly mismanaged. In 2015, all five Executive parties backed the Going for Growth strategy, driven by industrial agriculture. Then in 2020, the SDLP minister - supported by her Executive colleagues - approved destructive sand dredging. 1/2

Labour is well and truly rattled

Some in the DUP are happy to go along with anti immigration rhetoric, yet have said little on vigilante groups on our streets. These groups are nothing more than racist scumbags. Meanwhile the Justice Minister tells us we all need to do more. No Naomi, how about you do your job?
