"Jeffrey Donaldson worked for the British Government overseas...
He may have been Unionism's equivalent of Stakeknife. Has London been running the DUP...?"

On Facebook woman says she came to an Alison Moyet sings songs of Yazoo etc & didn’t know a single song!
She’s very disappointed.
Hmmm. Only You? Nobodies Diary? Don’t Go? Situation? Upstairs at Eric’s? Nothing?
I can only assume she was holding out for
‘’The Only Way is Up’

Unelected daughter of a ‘gun runner’ gifted her seat by her party leader a now convicted sex offender after raping and sexually abusing young children blocking an democratically elected first minister doing her job. NI id a failed state….
Given the seriousness of the circumstances surrounding Michelle O’Neill’s recent reckless conduct, and the damage it has done to the operation of our joint office, I have withdrawn agreement to attendance at tomorrow’s engagements in Glasgow.
This follows on the back of stopping separate planned engagements, including with the President of Ireland, Catherine Connelly over the last number of weeks and I have not agreed further activities or events.
I do not take this action lightly.
The situation surrounding the First Minister’s recent conduct remains extremely serious. There is significant anger, hurt and legitimate public discontent arising from her actions. These concerns cannot simply be dismissed or minimised. This is an exceptionally serious matter, particularly given the responsibilities of the office she holds and the importance of public confidence in the rule of law.
Of further concern is the First Minister’s continuing refusal to recognise or meaningfully acknowledge the depth and legitimacy of the discontent caused by her behaviour. Her approach has contributed to a significant deterioration in confidence and in the working relationship necessary to discharge the responsibilities of our joint office.
Northern Ireland will not miss out. I have requested a separate meeting with the Prime Minister to ensure Northern Ireland’s interests, including the urgent budgetary and funding challenges facing the Executive, continue to be represented directly.

The deputy First Minister has decided to block representation from here at major political event, which would include meeting with the First Ministers of Scotland and Wales, and the British Prime Minister.
It is for the people to decide who represents them as First Minister. Not the DUP.

Tommy Robinson sent a letter to himself, he meant to log out and send it from a different account.
But he didn't.
Don't RT 🤣

I don't know where to begin with this level of ignorance. This is Carla, having purchased a painting from an exhibition. Delighted to find a 'special place in my office' for a scene of riot police at Drumcree, forcing a march down the road. This is why people are fleeing unionism

What exactly does Carla Lockhart want?
She wants to remove the elected First Minister.
She wants Stormont collapsed.
She wants to create more division.
She wants to follow the destructive policies of Allister and Bryson.
She wants to represent only one part of her constituency.
She wants POWER!!!

Leonas Stonkus, whose Nazi-led Lithuanian battalion shot the Jews of Kopyl in Belarus:
Interviewer: “Were they shot lying on the ground, or in the pits?”
Stonkus: “The women knelt, I think. The children were jumping about. They had no idea this was a death zone. [...] The children stood in front. Behind them, all were already shot. They did not realize their parents were dead. The older boys or girls understood. The little ones just carried on fooling around.”
Interviewer: “So how were the children driven to the pit?”
Stonkus: “The women led the children. The order was that a mother must not leave her child behind. You must take your child with you. If you don't have the child, give it to a neighbor to lead.”
Interviewer: “Mothers and children?”
Stonkus: “Together. They crammed them into that pit, one on top of another. No one paid any attention. They fired, and that was it.”
This comes from USHMM’s interviews with Lithuanian witnesses (Leonas Stonkus interview, 1998, RG-50.473.0023). English captions translated from USHMM's transcript of Stonkus’s Lithuanian. Cut and captioned by me.

I will never forget the time he was hit by a brick by his own at a orange Order protest that sent him into a time wrap 🌯 He never recovered from it , Another thing why he didn't press charges on the guy who did it when everyone new Who it was

Jamie forgive me, but I thought Saturday night was about supporting the Orange Order and the so-called “lawful 35”?
Yet here we have Carla thanking everyone for supporting HER, complete with a full-page personal manifesto, a carefully posed photograph and a rather grand declaration about her courage, principles and leadership. I’d say she could give the UniBomber a few tips on writing a manifesto
At what point did an Orange Order dispute become the Carla Lockhart appreciation society?
Carla L speaks about the rule of law, yet makes serious allegations about IRA involvement without presenting evidence in this statement. She demands. accountability from others while treating a political disagreement as grounds for removing a democratically appointed First Minister.
This is straight from the. unionist playbook, tell everyone that their rights are being trampled on, keep the flames of hate lit. And that’s been the strategy for decades
And perhaps the most revealing line of all is her insistence that she has no interest in titles or positions. An interesting reassurance in a statement that places her. so firmly at the centre of everything. And sounds like she loves it.
The people who attended portadown deserve to know whether they were supporting a particular cause or being enlisted into a wider political campaign.
Because those are two very different things
The Orange Order was supposed to be the centre of attention. Somehow, Carla “I want to be first minister”Lockhart managed to make the entire occasion about herself .
