Just minuted ago, political leaders in America issued a letter calling for any attempt to force an Orange march down throughthe Garvaghy Road to be stopped. This follows a letter signed by MEPs from right across Europe earlier in the week. Support for the Garvaghy community is growing across Ireland and internationally.

🙌🏻 A must watch speech from Sinn Féin MLA Emma Sheerin! “People here want progress. They don’t want to be dragged back to the days of Drumcree. People want to look to the future.”

🔥 An absolute privilege to be the first person in 228 years to have a flagon in the reincarnated ‘The Benjamin Franklin’ aka: ‘Peggy Barclays’ of 1790’s radical fame. This is #officially the oldest known historical tavern in Belfast!🪉 #Enlightenment #1798 #SugarhouseEntry💚

The future of Belfast respecting the identities of those who live here welcoming those who have come here to live and helping those in need
Belfast’s new Lord Mayor has spoken of the importance of “wrapping our arms” around all communities in the city. Sinn Féin’s Róis-Márie Donnelly visited a local community centre on Tuesday in her first official appointment since taking up office.

There was always an alternative to the sectarian repressive unionist state - reminding the DUP
There was always an alternative to IRA terrorism - reminding Sinn Fein!

Springhill Inquest Findings: None of the victims posed a threat. All were aimed shots. All represented unreasonable force by the British Army. Father Noel Fitzpatrick and father of 6 Patrick Butler were killed by the same bullet. All killings were violations of British Army's own Yellow Card rules. John Dougal (16yrs): shot by Soldier A while running away and trying to find cover, he may have been armed but Coroner declared that irrelevant. Father Noel Fitzpatrick: was shot by Soldier A while trying to minister to injured/dead/dying. The British soldier would have seen that he was unarmed. Patrick Butler: was shot and killed by Soldier A while he was assisting Father Fitzpatrick. The British soldier would have seen he was unarmed. David McCafferty (14yrs): was killed by Soldier A while trying to retrieve Father Fitzpatrick's body. The British soldier would have seen he was unarmed. Margaret Gargan (13yrs): was unarmed and posed no threat when killed by Solider E. Our sincere thoughts and gratitude are with these extraordinary families this evening. They have borne unmerciful hardship and trauma. Their courage in the face of the British state's impunity has been truly inspiring.
