The men thrown from the bridge at the Portadown massacre were not statistics. They were Protestant men, women and children, driven into the River Bann by rebels in 1641, with many shot as they tried to crawl back to safety. It became one of the bloodiest massacres of Protestants in Northern Ireland, and it burned itself into the memory of Ulster Protestants for generations.
When Oliver Cromwell came to Ireland years later, he did not arrive in a vacuum. He came after years of rebellion, slaughter, and fear, with Portadown standing as a symbol of what many English and Scottish Protestants believed had been done to their people. Many saw his campaign as vengeance and protection, not conquest alone. History should be told honestly: Portadown mattered, and it shaped everything that followed.

Ed Husain is not a crank. He is a former Islamist, counter-extremism expert, author and academic. So when he says the British state has allowed Muslim Brotherhood-linked networks to flourish here because they give our intelligence services leverage over Arab governments, it should shake Westminster.
This is a message to everyone on X especially Elon Musk from German director Uwe Boll, creator of the brilliant but highly controversial Citizen Vigilante.
Let’s be honest it’s only “controversial” because Hollywood, governments and the establishment don’t want you watching it.
🔥Hold up…A closer look at the dirty play by Alyssa Thomas last night w/ a new angle — Wait for the freeze + zoom on each.

- Fist to the throat
- Attempt to stomp on her (she moved)
Why do @WNBA players hate Caitlin Clark so much? 🤯
No Muslim should be permitted to sit in a British Parliament to further the Islamic agenda at the expense of the national interest.
There are plenty of Islamic states you can go and govern.
This is our home.
You are a guest.
Show some respect.
Another Starmer poisoned legacy in his censorious war with Big Tech: undermine any claims for BBC impartiality. Surely if state declares BBC & public service broadcasters are one & only truth (in face of a slew of contrary evidence), won't this undermine trust even further?
If many Nationalists had known Sinn Fein's vision for Ireland they would not have voted for Good Friday Agreement
It pains me to say it but I'd now much prefer the DUP take Northern Ireland forward than live in the multicultured shithole that Sinn Fein hope to turn Ireland into
@irish_news I think you’ll find it’s not only Protestants that object to open borders and being over run by immigrants. There have been demonstrations in Dublin and all over Europe. You are clearly an ignorant bigot.
