Nobody believes a word you say any more. Compulsive spoofer.

Over 20,000 people were gathered at Belfast City Hall for the rally against racism today.
That’s over 1% of the entire population of NI.
I was one of them.

The Communist Wall in Belfast was an odd place to hold it. Full of alienating propaganda.

An anti-racism protest has now started to gather at the peace wall in west Belfast.
The rally has been organised by Sinn Féin and People Before Profit. @BelTel

And so it begins. State broadcasters (official and unofficial) will be awash now with stories about the evils of social media - just watch. It is because of riots etc - or because Govt realises how it can influence voters and it wants power to control that influence?

People believe that Govt ignores popular opinion until there's violence. It's 3:42pm - just hours before things could go horribly wrong in Northern Ireland. You have a short window of opportunity to avoid it.
It is your responsibility as Prime Minister to change their minds.

The horrific attack in Belfast last night is sickening.
I have absolutely no tolerance for abhorrent scenes of violence like this on our streets.
My thoughts are first and foremost with the victim, and I thank the first responders, including members of the public who intervened.

see how all the replies immediately jump to the extreme and even downright threaten this fella. That’s far-right. Agree or disagree with him, he makes a reasonable, weighted point. But when you’re blinded by hate, everything looks like a nail.
Be careful how you respond to events in North Belfast. It's reasonable to support protests that call for realistic number controls, enhanced vetting & integration measures for migrants. Not indiscriminate protests that tar all migrants with one brush.
Know before you protest.

Have you read posts about protests in Northern Ireland?Checklist:
1: Who is responsible as the organiser?
2: Exactly who is the protest directed at and what is it calling for them to do?
If you can't find any answers to these questions, there's a fair chance you're being played.

I worry about the repercussions of what we have witnessed. At a time when our communities need unity and understanding, I hope this appalling incident does not fuel further division or tension among our young people or within our neighbourhoods.
Prayers with the victim🙏

Just switched on @BBCnireland news to find out, and of course the lead story was..... safeguarding concerns about a church!
For anyone who has seen the video, why did BBC then play this down by describing it as "a stabbing incident"? Guy was astride his victim slicing his neck!
