It’s widely accepted that QUB has been and continues to be a cold house for Protestants and Unionists.
Check out some examples in this 🧵
Some relate to terror and it’s glorification, others do not but all these factors contribute differently to the ‘cold house’ factor...
QUB gives clear support to the openly Nationalist GAA.
The All-Ireland cup is named in memory of Sam Maguire, a man implicated in the murder of Sir Henry Wilson; an honorary Graduate of Queen’s University.
We’d like to send a huge congratulations to the Queen’s graduates and alumni that won the All-Ireland Senior Football Final yesterday as part of the @Armagh_GAA team 🏆
Kieran McGeeney, Paddy Burns, Peter McGrane, Tiernan Kelly, Ben Crealey, Joe McIlroy, Rory Grugan, Andrew Murnin, Conor Turbitt, Greg McCabe, Ciaran Higgins, Conor O’Neill, Callum O’Neill, Tomas McCormack, Ciaran O’Hanlon, Ciaran McKeever, Denis Hollywood and Hugh Campbell - you’ve done us all proud 👏

Thoughts with all those in the Holylands today who think St. Patrick’s Day is about getting plastered, hating Prods and glorifying terrorists… 🫣🤦🏻♂️

Astonishing.
QUB is continuing down a road of division and polarisation, to the great expense of those students and staff who don’t succumb to groupthink.
This cannot and should not go unchallenged.
If Universities are to hold any value in our Society they must be a marketplace of ideas (within reason) and they must develop critical thinking within their students.
QUB should be teaching its students how to think NOT what to think.

40 years ago today, Edgar Graham was murdered at QUB because of his intellect and Unionist politics.
Sadly, some continue to justify this ghastly and horrific murder.
Today marks the 40th anniversary of the murder of UUP man Edgar Graham by the IRA

‘A student at Queen's University Belfast (QUB) was sent swastikas for being Jewish, the government's independent adviser on antisemitism has said’.

On November 4, 1983, the IRA fatally bombed the University of Ulster, Jordanstown, while RUC officers were attending a class.
We are preparing an article about it.
If you were present that day, or know someone who was, please contact [email protected]
In response to the mass slaughter of innocents in Israel, individuals have been handing these out around QUB in the last number of days.
In the recent past we have learnt about the catastrophic consequences of extremism at QUB. This cannot be left unchecked.
QUB must act.
Concerned Queen’s University Belfast Students retweeted
30% of Protestant students are choosing to go to University outside of NI, compared with only 19% of Roman Catholics.
Another (intentional?) consequence of the ‘chilling’ effect on Protestant and Unionist young people who study at our Universities @BelTel (2023).
Incredible.
NEW: President Michael D Higgins has officially appointed QUB's Professor Colin Harvey as a member of the Irish Human Rights and Equality Commission @irish_news @QUBelfast
A great article by Samuel Morrison on last month’s ‘Celebration of Orangeism’ at QUB ✍️
