When Magee is eventually returned to Derry and the cross-border NWU established, Garrett Hargan’s work will be spotlighted as a key driver of that essential change.
Well done, @GAHargan, we are all very proud of you!
Congratulations to A Scandal in Plain sight author (and @BelTel NW reporter) @GAHargan, who was given a civic reception by Mayor @Lseenoi at the Guildhall tonight in recognition of his campaigning and investigative writing.
Well done Freeman Hargan, it was completely deserved.
It was a lovely event and couldn’t happen to a nicer person.
Many thanks to the Mayor and all at @dcsdcouncil for such a lovely evening. Go raibh maith agaibh uilig.

Beg to get a ticket for this in Dublin’s Gate Theatre - brilliant, and a history of the Good Friday Agreement that needs to be understood by those who lived through it, and by the post-Good Friday generations. Peace is hard-won, and easily endangered search.app/9DkBaYBpssA52sp98
