High-level talks between British and Irish defence officials have begun as Ireland plans to join a major north-Atlantic naval alliance which is designed to counter Russia.

@SirFrankyonsea @CharlieCurrie12 British laws don’t count in Ireland. Any part of Ireland.

Scarva? The Palestine march passed on a towpath, not through town, it was actually unlawfully blocked, trailers etc were place blocking the route & slurry spread on the route. Then masked men intimidated the march with Carla Lockhart with them, chatting.

Irish military to be permitted to use force in support of An Garda Síochana

Personnel permitted to use force in more circumstances if State security is at stake

A legal anomaly meant, in almost all circumstances, military personnel were restricted to using force only in self-defence or the defence of their comrades.

Now, with the introduction of new rules of engagement, that has changed. When acting in support of the Garda, military personnel will be permitted to use force in a much wider array of circumstances if State security is at stake.

@TomClonan @BallingarryTy “The War to end all Wars.” Nothing of the sort…humanity seems to be addicted to war. Only the actual lived experience of it seems to stay the Dogs of War for a generation or two. We can’t allow ourselves to be sucked in.

@BallingarryTy @TomClonan Being anti war is not a “cheap political point”.

[Micko Reilly-(What 'Green Jersey'?) @Mappermick]

@TomClonan God Bless them for evermore, Tom. That would have been the second battle of Ypres? ( Or “wipers” as the British soldiers called it.) Hell on Earth, even as the major battles of WW1 went.

@DiscipleElland @irish_news No question but that Sinn Féin recognised the historical importance and massive significance of what was happening on the #GarvaghyRoad and yes, they seized the moment and were not found wanting.

They can still bring it!

The DUP after today will have signed 90 Petitions of concerns.

Sinn Féin have signed 29 Petitions of concern

@bbcradioulster stop with the nonsense of “the two biggest parties”

The DUP are using it for Sectarian purposes. Sin é

"What Nationalism did was take control of the ownership, not only of the Garvaghy Road, but of the political scene in the North, with Sinn Fein demonstrating that they have a priceless asset, what Americans call 'The Big Mo'..."

[Charlie Currie @CharlieCurrie12]

PSNI can send as many files to the CPS on those who protested on Garvaghy Rd as they like.

Art 11 of the Convention of Human Rights Convention covers protesters in their LEGAL right to gather in a public space.

They have NO case to answer.

PSNI time wasted & our taxes misused.

@egaffney002 @gavpepper85 Can somebody come up with a workable solution to this ‘problem’ then? Preferably one that doesn’t involve mass unrest and violence?

Feb 12 2025 Stephen Nolan did a softly softly (omg, how are you keeping) interview with the Lisneal College principal after the outcry over the £700k+ award from DUP for a football pitch.

So when is he going to have an Irish medium school principal on for the same support?

[Annie McGinley @annie_mcginley]

Garvaghy Road residents had originally notified the Parades Commission before withdrawing their application during a 2am court sitting.

Policing Board advisor Aonghus Kelly says the peaceful protest remained lawful under human rights law, despite PSNI prosecutions.

BREAKING NEWS TONIGHT:
(FROM STORMONT). 9.00pm.

** THE SINN FEIN BILL TO PROVIDE HOLIDAY HUNGER PAYMENTS FOR SCHOOLCHILDREN, HAS BEEN PASSED TONIGHT IN THE STORMONT ASSEMBLY, DESPITE THE OPPOSITION FROM ALL THREE UNIONIST PARTIES. **

A bill by West Belfast Sinn Fein MLA Danny Baker, to establish permanent summer food payments for 90,000 schoolchildren across the North of Ireland who are on Free School Meals, has been passed tonight in the Stormont Assembly, (at it's Final Stage).

All three Unionist Parties opposed the bill, but tonight the Bill was carried by 49 votes in favour to 24 votes against.

Alliance, SDLP & Gerry Carroll from PBP, all supported the Sinn Fein motion. Independent Unionist Claire Sugden also supported Danny Baker's motion.

Danny Baker has been personally working on preparing his Holiday Hunger Bill for the past 4 years. His personal commitment to the bill was praised by many MLA's from across different Parties within the Assembly tonight.

The Sinn Fein Bill will ensure that children in poverty here from all backgrounds, including Nationalist & Unionist, will receive financial payments for food during the summer months.

A succession of Unionist MLA's including the DUP Education Minister Paul Givan and the UUP Leader Jon Burrows, spoke against the legislation.

I'm old enough to remember that the girls terrorised by unionists at Holy Cross, and that generation, were voters a few years later.
Dodds paid the price, the @duponline Bunker Burrows @uuponline and Sunny Jim @TUVonline targeting young Gaeilgeoir will be no different...

[John Finucane MP @johnfinucane]

40 years ago, Ulster Resistance was established with the involvement & public support of senior DUP figures.

Today, I spoke at the launch of a report examining Ulster Resistance’s establishment, the weapons it acquired & the devastating consequences that followed.

Those families whose loved ones were murdered with weapons imported by Ulster Resistance are still waiting for answers. They deserve enormous credit for refusing to give up.

Between 1988 & 1994, at least 98 people were murdered using Ulster Resistance weapons, including in sectarian loyalist attacks on Catholic & nationalist communities.

Will the DUP leader Gavin Robinson help these families get answers about the DUP’s involvement in Ulster Resistance & the imported weapons?

That means answering serious questions about the roles of senior DUP figures at the time, including Ian Paisley, Peter Robinson, Sammy Wilson & Jim Allister, among others.
