It is difficult to imagine a more absurd sight than thuggish men brandishing the Union Jack while torching Belfast and demanding that foreigners leave Ireland, writes Kelly Given ✍️

‘The political identity these thugs claim allegiance to emerged from a history inseparable from colonialism, migration and settlement in Ireland.’

Politicians who fanned these flames should hang their heads in shame.
Time and again we've seen this story play out. Single incidents used to fuel a far right narrative - and communities across the nation paying the price.

It's clearly a horrific crime that should be punished the harshest but if your first reaction is to join a Tommy Robinson march, then you either don't have Belfast's best intentions at heart in the first place or are simply a massive fucking idiot

In 2024, a white neo-Nazi tried to behead a Kurdish barber.
Did Patrick Christys say:
"I preferred our country before white men started trying to behead people in the street"?
No. He said zilch.
Both the perpetrator and the victim had the wrong skin colour for condemnation
Police now say they got his nationality wrong. He’s Sudanese. Call me old fashioned, but I preferred our country before Sudanese men started trying to behead people in the street.
