The vast crowds of ā€˜ordinary people’ paying their respects to Pope Francis understand things academics, media figures & naysayers have forgotten - about good people, values & faith. We saw it for the late Queen too. The public’s instinct is never wrong belfasttelegraph.co.uk/opinion/column…

The scale of public drug abuse in Belfast city centre is horrifying & bad for business. It unnerves shoppers, workers & tourists. A needle bin just conceals the problem. The drug lords who wreck lives need to know they’re going to jail for a very long time belfasttelegraph.co.uk/opinion/column…

Refusing to give the media mugshots of guilty people, faulty investigations, appeals for information using absurdly altered photos...The PSNI must be credible but the bad habit of clumsy spectacle-making it has fallen into has reached chronic proportions belfasttelegraph.co.uk/opinion/column…

Tyrone family McGirrs, wrongly branded ā€˜dine & dashers’ by an English pub, deserve every penny of their libel win. Their good name was trashed. The landlord faces a hefty bill but it should never have happened. The blameless McGirrs are the real victims belfasttelegraph.co.uk/opinion/column…

Andy Cardy, dad of murdered Jennifer, was an extraordinary individual. A man of deep Christian faith, talking to him was thought-provoking & profoundly moving.He faced a nightmare & missed Jennifer every day. His views on justice still deserve to be heard belfasttelegraph.co.uk/opinion/column…

Damage to Giant’s Causeway by coins shoved between rocks proves some people can’t leave anything alone. But the attitude comes from Stormont down - so much is bulldozed, left to rot, defaced. We need a cultural change in how Gov protects our surroundings belfasttelegraph.co.uk/opinion/column…

Women murdered, beaten, paid less, trafficked, not allowed to choose what they wear…there are more urgent issues to get angry about than beauty contests. Besides it’s a mean heart that would knock Carly Wilson being crowned Miss NI after cancer all-clear belfasttelegraph.co.uk/opinion/column…

NI women were viciously trolled on Tattle Life. Business owners & influencers were left broken by hatemongers. Well done Neil & Donna Sands for exposing the gossip site’s owner. Let’s hope the lynch mob now have sleepless nights as net closes in on them belfasttelegraph.co.uk/opinion/column…

Van Morrison is a musical genius. Thinking he can be told not to mention a pub in a song because it later became notorious is nonsense. His stock-in-trade is the streets of his youth.This place can never repay Van for what he’s done for its image & culture belfasttelegraph.co.uk/opinion/column…

Chancellor Rachel Reeves wields huge power. She didn’t baulk at savage decisions re the disabled, OAPs, farmers & business owners. But she wept in the Commons for 36 minutes on live TV. No male MP would politically survive such a public emotional collapse belfasttelegraph.co.uk/opinion/column…
