The PSNI said they are treating the incident as a hate crime.

This is 100% Unionists.

It’s a weird phenomenon. We’re talking about a group who spent years infringing on the civil rights of native Irish, arguing it was necessary coz those darn Catholics have big families and if they ever outnumber us their backwards religion will drag us back to the dark ages.

Now they’re a bunch of young Earth creationist homophobes. Also ignoring that the Presbyterian Church doesn’t endorse either of those things.

Fucking weird.

The footage involving Foster emerged from the Local Women Business Awards in Belfast at the weekend.

Call up the fecking Orange Order and get them to stop the marches & bonfires Arlene. C’mon I know you’ve got them on speed dial.

Then…then we can talk about “civility”.

Ngl…I don’t give one single tiny shit about “up the Ra” until the marches & bonfires die.

18 British soldiers were killed at Narrow Water in an IRA bomb attack in 1979.

Not condoning anything…but investigate the marches & the bonfires every year as hate crimes, then we can talk.

McDonald was speaking during an Easter commemoration in Belfast to mark 106 years since the 1916 Rising.

The leadership of Sinn Féin has called for “partnership” with unionists to help realise the party’s objective of a united Ireland.

Mary Lou McDonald said unionists must have an “equal part” in building what she described as a new Ireland.

She was attending a commemoration in Belfast yesterdat to mark 106 years since the 1916 Rising.

Addressing a large crowd that assembled in Milltown Cemetery, McDonald urged unionists to “walk this journey with us”.

“To those of a unionist tradition I say sincerely, we seek partnership with you,” she said.

“It is not for anybody to invite you in; that future is already yours. It is about you, it is of you, it is for you.

“British government after British government has disrespected and failed you, time and again.

“Imagine instead the liberating possibility of full freedom to make all decisions here, in a parliament here, for the people who live here.

“Instead of a government in London turning its back on you, imagine an Ireland where your place is assured and your rights are enshrined in law.”

I imagine you could power both Ireland and Scotland from the spinning going on in Ian Paisley's grave as he endeavours to shout NOOOOOOOOO. No doubt the same response was forthcoming from the party he used to lead as well as other blowhard unionists/loyalists.
