- Irish Gov should close down the Israel embassy in “solidarity” with murdered children of Palestine instead of worrying about Russian spies playing Cold War games
- President Biden delivers a diplomatic but clear message on the need to get all the institutions of the GFA re established asap.
- Remembering Vol Joe McDonnell on his 37th Anniversary 8th July 1981 following 61 days Hunger Strike. “And they dare to call me a terrorist”
- Really sorry to hear the very sad news of Christopher Stalford’s passing. Deepest sympathy to Laura their children and all the wider family circle and his DUP friends and colleagues.
- I have contacted the Taoiseach and Simon Coveney’’s offices to call for the expulsion of the Ambassador of Israel in protest against the blatant murder of peaceful protesters. I am asking all those who share this view to contact the Irish gov direct-make your voice heard.
- Oh dear I must get my Legacy story right. I always thought the British partitioned Ireland by force and coercion. I thought the Unionist Govt ruled by systemic discrimination and political exclusion enforced by B Specials and RUC. And civil righters beaten of the streets????

- Arlene Foster tells Theresa May to “stand up” to EU, while she couldn’t “stand up” to the Orange Order...
- More SF members were assassinated during the conflict than other parties put together. Yet Fionnuala O’Connor can’t mention even one in this article. I’m not sure if I’m more angry or sickened. But it tells me more about the author.
- I took this photo at Easter commemoration in late 1970s. The young ppl were on top of the bus depot opposite Milltown cemetary. Shots had just been fired. Often wonder where they are 40 yrs on?

- I think the EU should insist Britain commit to "exclusively peaceful and democratic means" before they can join negotiations on Brexit 😡
- Emm, end partition, self determination for people of Ireland, future of Ireland decided by the people of Ireland with no external impediment, Reunification of Ireland, that sort of thing?🤔Explanation demanded from Sinn Fein leader Mary Lou McDonald over 'England get out of Ireland' banner belfasttelegraph.co.uk/news/northern-…
