@SageDespatches ‘Softly Softly Task Force’ and ‘Special Branch’ must have honourable mentions for maintaining a high standard of police procedural drama. The Sweeney was better viewing, but the others were not without merit.
@GroupArtemis@TheSimonEvansX That is simply not true. He is no lower in standard than many of his white colleagues. They are at least equally appalling with very, very few exceptions.

Institute of Irish studies - 2026 Northern Ireland Poll
Yes to remain in UK 🇬🇧 61.4%
No to remain in UK 🇮🇪 28.3%
I would vote for a United Ireland tomorrow:
Disagree 🇬🇧 49.7%
Agree 🇮🇪 35.8%
Support for a United ireland on both questions is DOWN from previous polling by the same institute.
@LucidTalk@naomi_long a clear majority of Alliance voters preferences is to remain in the UK.
Love it when they say “ well you have to remember, this was during the pandemic , we were all under lockdown” as if we all remember losing our minds and our moral compass and sense of proportion and protocol and everything else.
No. You, the political classes and the race baiters and grifters lost your collective minds. *We* all battled to stay sane under the relentless tide of bullshit from our elected representatives and a catastrophic wave of unaffordable measures that we were bullied into accepting on pain of legal and professional consequences. And we don’t need remaining. We have not forgotten.
As @chrisadonnelly has thought this through, he’ll have worked out that if this March goes ahead despite local opposition, why shouldn’t it happen in Garvaghy Road/Lower Ormeau? Maybe because today has nothing to do with the Orange Order. And Chris’s comparison is trite.
A rather interesting precedent for Loyal Order parades organised for the centre of Derry, Newry, Crumlin, Glenavy, Glengormley….
I really doubt Loyal Ulster has thought this one through.
@LBC It’s because he was immediately treated as a criminal by the police because he was accused of racism by a liar whilst lying in pain on the ground. For what reason did the police come to the conclusion he should be arrested? His injuries and the lack of care shown are additional.
@BradyJames75955@squinteratn@CowKeith@SpeechUnion No he wasn’t but Squinter provided the idiotic input every discussion needs. And was thoroughly put in his box. You should have gone to wipe his chin.
@TheSimonEvansX@DavidDPaxton The answer Enoch Powell gave when it was suggested he had ‘no right’ to raise certain concerns of his constituents, was that he had ‘no right not to’.
