Maybe youse can understand a little more now about what I experienced in my time there 😉 it can be hard to explain such subtle, engrained bias, but my God it’s there. The mad bit is that they don’t see it themselves.. at all!

Interesting, because I listened to the conversation on @BBCgmu this morning between Chris Buckler & Darran Marshall about Saturday Night's Orange Parade in Drumcree. The tone of the conversation was incredible. "Carla" was platformed in an incredibly amicable way. Almost cringeworthy. There was even a "revelation" that they had discovered that she actually prefers 'Supermix' Haribos.. Chris even finished the piece by referring to her as "Storm Carla". The lack of self-awareness by @bbcni is now glaring. Something has to change... @BBCgmu @csbuckler @DarranMarshall

This can’t be ignored. The song envisages a world where there is no Pope, nuns, priests nor Catholic Churches. Those playing it have been invited to participate in a procession demanding an Orange parade thru a Catholic area in the town. This is BBCNI headline-worthy material.

It didnt take too long for last night's parade to show its true face. Minutes after Lockhart and senior members of Portadown walked by playing the victims, the sectarian, anti Catholic hate tune "No Pope" was given a blast. The O.O. is a hate organisation, nothing more.

The British policy of starvation that murdered overall a million Irish people, or the savage repression of our language, culture and religion is NOT part of education 🙃 But for the 0.5% Jewish population, total coverage of German crimes.

Severe shortages grip Gaza’s markets as the spectre of famine looms once again over the besieged Strip, with border crossings closed to essential goods and fresh produce.

The DUP can shout and make lots of noise today but it’s still out there that their ex leader (great friend to most of them) is a sexual deviant, rapist, paedophile. No amount of deflection is going to cover up that festering mess of a human and his political party.

No. 10 knowing back in 1973 that the UDR was hopelessly infiltrated by the UVF and UDA, and actively engaged in murder, remains one of the most existentially shocking facts to emerge from the conflict. IMHO.

Saudi Arabia has executed, by beheading, a young couple who kissed at a mosque. Saudi Arabia has the full military support of the EU, US and UK. They don't care about human rights, they simply represent the wishes of corporations for profit. Guess why Iran is their enemy?

I know everyone on here will join me in expressing gratitude to the people of Garvaghy for remaining peaceful in the face of this terrifying UVF/UDA threat. Portadown District and Eddie the Legal are to be congratulated for bringing the PSNI security assessment to light.

Police also said it was possible that loyalist paramilitaries who supported the parade would go to Portadown and that public disorder at Drumcree Church was possible @rtenews

Anyone know the status of Jim Gamble's independent review into the DUP over who knew what about Jeffrey Donaldson? I thought it was to be completed within three months?

Unionism is in an absolute mess at the moment. The UVF & UDA have remained active for the past 28 years and they've said and done nothing, other than giving them briefings via the LCC. Now they call for an IRA assessment to try and escape their mess. It all stinks.

Nothing to see here just the executive editor of the Washington Post pointing out that Netanyahu is lying. They lie about everything. No media outlet should ever print their words - it's akin to Nazi propaganda.

To be clear: Some facts are neither in dispute nor unclear. Our photographer was clearly marked as Press. She was clearly beaten. These are not partisan or risible statements, but indisputable. We urge a thorough investigation and accountability.

The Parades Commission met the UVF/UDA to discuss the Garvaghy parade. Both organisations are active, armed and engaged in a wide range of criminality, from murder to trafficking; from extortion to ethnic cleansing. The DUP has asked the Chief Constable for a report on the IRA.
