@terrychristian Carroll rather than Pat Jennings? Ah Terry come on.
Its hard to undersell just how large the demonstration in Belfast was today. It was one of the largest demonstrations i've ever seen in the city.
Belfast ranks 32nd per capita for asylum seekers in the UK. Northern Ireland hosts 2,379 in total. That’s 0.1% of its population. NI is 97% white. Asylum seekers are not “illegal migrants”; they’re going through a legal government process. factcheckni.org/articles/immig…
Belfast houses more asylum seekers per capita than almost any other place in the UK. One in 200 people in Belfast is an illegal migrant. Who could possibly have foreseen civil unrest? It’s the immigration, stupid.
@penguinsforkey2 @Telegraph It’s a lie.

It’s done! Trump’s name has been YEETED from the Kennedy Center like the failed grifter he is. No more pretending he belongs anywhere near JFK’s legacy. Bye, Donnie. Don’t let the tarp hit your ass on the way out. 🇺🇸
@daithaigilbert @TirChonaillAbu @elonmusk @TRobinsonNewEra You’re missing a key element here. None of the rioting in working class loyalist areas of the North of Ireland in recent days would have happened without the involvement and support of loyalist paramilitaries.
This is the majority of people in Belfast rather than the racist thugs who were burning people out earlier in the week.
Latest: Thousands of people are attending an anti-racism rally in Belfast following days of unrest. Read more: tinyurl.com/kh32wejv
Instead of discussing how Elon Musk is now the world's first trillionaire, we should talk about how he killed hundreds of thousands of people through his dismantling of food and medical aid to poor countries currentaffairs.org/news/how-elon-…
The highlights in the official #WorldCup app has an awful US commentator. 🤦🏻♂️
@Paddygray1 I only read about this for the first time about 5 years ago. Weirdly forgotten.
Comedy gold on @FoxNews. Yes, the loyalist paramilitaries that are clearly orchestrating this rioting have always wanted to be Irish. 😆
I have heard some cringeworthy takes on my homeland this week, but this is different level. Staunchly Unionist East Belfast wants Ireland back... apparently. 👀
@davidyelland He’s promoting racism through his personal posts and has also structured this entire platform to er platform right wing bots, and fascists.
Ten years ago next week, the Labour MP Jo Cox was stabbed and killed by a white supremacist born in Scotland who hated her support for remaining in the European Union. Farage and his far-right supporters didn’t give a damn.
