Breandán Mac Cionnaith is 68 years old. 🇮🇪
In the past two weeks he has stood on the front line facing down the Orange Order, The PSNI, The Secretary of State, The British Government, all of the sectarian Unionist Party's, the media, and just about every single other person on the planet who threatened the peace of the Garvaghy Road community that he loves so much...
Ireland has always had it's heroes. Warriors who led from the front. Who never gave an inch...
Breandán is a rebel. And tonight that rebel has led his people to victory...
Go raibh maith agat Breandán...
✊🇮🇪
Bloody Sunday happened 53 years ago today.
The day innocence died.
Thinking of all the bloody Sunday families who had loved ones murdered and injured.
Always remembered.
Republican youth across Derry lit fireworks as the news of sir general Mick Jackson’s death came in.
This man was a general of the parachute regiment responsible for Bloody Sunday, ballymurphy, and massacres in Kosovo.
His deeds would have shamed all the devils in hell.
44 years ago on 23 January, 1980 Giuseppe Conlon died in a British prison an innocent man.
He died 5 years into a 12 year sentence handed down for something he didn't do by a corrupt Police force who escaped punishment.
His only crime was that he was Irish. RIP
Invited into Derry by its nationalist majority and asked to show respect.
Sticks on his "Soldier F" badge just mock the innocent victims murdered a few streets away.
The absolute face of bitterness!
A band travelled from Castlederg in Tyrone to play "No Pope" during a march with the sectarian O.O. and right wing fascists while the same fascists complained about hatred against Jews....
Just think about that for a minute...
A band partly funded of course by the Irish gov.
Burn national flags; Meh

Film yourself singing up the ra; absolute meltdown 🤷♀️🤷♀️
Whenever the DUP are ready to apologise for Red Sky, NAMA, RHI, Brexit, overplaying their hand throughout the Withdrawal negotiations, trusting Boris, and collapsing the Assembly, we'll talk, Carla.
Until then, focus on sorting the mess you created.
Rishi Sunak and his wife sit on a fortune of £730,000,000.
That’s around twice the estimated wealth of King Charles III.
Remember this whenever he talks about making “tough decisions” that working class people will pay for.
What “Up the Ra” means to people in their 90s-40s is completely different to people in their 30s-20s - decades gap!
To be uneducated & just wanting to stir something up to tick time off the clock is completely pious. And that’s unfair!
Well done on such a great win girls!🇮🇪☘️⚽️
Absolutely top class from Andrée.
Such a powerful opening paragraph setting, not only Féile an Phobail but, August 2022 in context of our history.
Read it out loud. Share it widely. Play it on repeat.
Look what happens in Derry during the year of the 50th anniversary of Bloody Sunday. This is unacceptable and, coming after similar provocative events in 2019, simply inexcusable. Answers are needed and will be sought from Apprentice Boys of Derry @PSNIDCSDistrict@dcsdcouncil
