I’ve stood on the ground in many riot situations. Most people commenting haven’t a clue what they’re talking about.
Carla, Diane, Jonathan and our Councillors were in Scarva doing the hard thing. They weren’t there for selfies or social media posts. They were there to provide leadership, keep calm heads and help ensure a difficult situation did not become a worse one.
Those who were actually there know the role they played.
South Down is a welcoming place defined by beautiful forests, mountains, and beaches - not masked intimidation
Next time you visit @carlalockhart you should look into what our constituency actually has to offer, rather than standing with masked men intimidating women & children
FIFA block booked hotel rooms across the US to create artificial demand and drive up prices for football fans. They cancelled all the block bookings now.

@EarlofLeuven@Tiernan__Joseph@dmcbfs No it doesn’t. If those party’s operated on an all island basis they’d come up against the same issues SF deal with.
@EarlofLeuven@Tiernan__Joseph@dmcbfs Don’t think we will ever see SF “formalise” the border tbh lol. You can’t push the same agenda in the north because SF has little tools to enact that and have significant resistance from unionism. The south is different because that power exists for the govt.
@EarlofLeuven@Tiernan__Joseph@dmcbfs The border always has bearing. It is the central issue for everyone in the north, without them realising it. SF in the south is the party we could be in a united ireland. In the north we are ham strung by various factors.
@EarlofLeuven@Tiernan__Joseph@dmcbfs Hardly. The south has so much more control over the economy, so SF there is more able to address concerns of people. Where SF in the north have unionist partners working against them and are working with a budget that isn’t enough to serve people here. Therefore approach diff
@_A_khalifa@FeargAgusFuath Definitions of terrorism is subjective. Have to respect those with no power fighting for national liberation against all the odds.
