The Irish patriots call this man all the names under the sun, traitor, soy boy and weak; a few I have witnessed. Tonight he takes a stand with the people of Garvaghy. Where are the patriots? Where is your spine? The true cowards have revealed themselves.

Over a thousand people on Garvaghy Road at 1.15am determined not to allow a march of hatred and sectarianism through. We'll be here through the night.

Latest news at Garvaghy Road is very hopeful. It appears the PSNI have told the Orange Order they won't be able to march because of the size of the protest. It's not clear if there will be an attempt later or not. Residents are continuing to protest. People power in action.

Still standing strong with residents on Garvaghy Road at 7am. So many stories of trauma, loss and pain caused by marches of the 90s. We wont let the bigots drag us back!

Say what you will about People Before Profit, but where is Fine Gael? Fianna Fáil? Labour? Social Democrats? Independent Ireland? The Green Party? It’s easy to stand with the Irish people when you do it from Leinster House.

Huge crowd of people at the Drumcree Community Centre waiting for the Court of Appeal decision. The Garvaghy Road residents have been incredibly welcoming, putting on food, tea and coffee, as well as activities for kids. The Orange Order must not march.

Bad news filtering in from the High Court that the Garvaghy Road residents' judicial review has been rejected. People are still shocked that the courts are allowing a sectarian march to go through this community. There's more than a thousand here to stop that happening.

Have to admire Brian Kerr he has stuck to his guns on Palestine and on these games with Israel. Between him and Gavin Bazunu they make us proud. We hang our head in shame when it comes to the @FAIreland and the Ireland manager. #StopTheGame lads.

🗣️'WHETHER IT'S SIX POINTS OR SIX MILLION IT'S SMALL COMPARED TO SUFFERING OF THE PALESTINIAN PEOPLE!' Brian Kerr has called for Senior FAI officials including CEO David Courell to resign following the decision to play Israel in tomorrow's UEFA Nations League fixture. #VMSport #FAI #Palestine #Israel

So it was 60/40 even after all the pressure and blackmailing of the players. The Government has to do what it should have done from the start and end this diabolical charade. #stopthegame

14-8 was the vote according to Kerr’s contacts. That’s not a “significant majority” and Bazunu wasn’t even made aware of the vote, he was excluded from the poxy meeting. Fuck off. #ireland

Incredible statement from Gavin Bazunu. "My decision is based purely upon my personal belief that the killing of innocent people is wrong." Sometimes it's just that simple. A hero.

Proud to be standing with residents on the Garvaghy Road tonight. Everyone is waiting anxiously for the court decision. The Orange Order cannot be allowed to march down the road tomorrow in a display of sectarian triumphalism. Society must not be dragged backwards.
