Trump: "We're in a war because we cannot let lunatics have a nuclear weapon"
English
The leader of the free world folks… Jesus wept.
Brian Krassenstein@krassenstein
BREAKING: Trump just completely lost it in his speech at The Villages, flipping out about the microphone not being loud enough. Reminds me of an old man with dementia.
English
Bloody Sunday Trust Chair,Tony Doherty, said: “I was astounded that the British Conservative leader, Kemi Badenoch, used footage of the murderous actions of British paratroopers on Bloody Sunday as justification for wiping the slate clean of their crimes."
Belfast Telegraph@BelTel
The Conservative Party has apologised after a video posted by party leader Kemi Badenoch included footage from Bloody Sunday. belfasttelegraph.co.uk/news/politics/…

Obviously they have sided with Celtic.
The entire Scottish football infrastructure from referees upwards will always side with Celtic. It’s baked in.
Sky Sports Scotland@ScotlandSky
🚨 An SPFL board sub-committee has sided with Celtic's decision to ban Rangers' ultras group, the Union Bears, for the final Old Firm clash of the season. However, they added visiting fans can still attend the game, which is live on Sky Sports. More - #liveblog-body" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">skysports.com/football/live-…

Le digo tres cosas a Netanyahu:
1. España siempre va a proteger a sus ciudadanos.
2. Siempre vamos a defender el derecho internacional.
3. Exigimos la libertad del ciudadano español secuestrado en la flotilla.

@MarkWilson1980 @dermot_harrigan There was a cop killed at Drumcree…

Colm seems to be unaware that Bloody Sunday was an out of control Riot that put everyone lives at risk....hence why shots were fired after hours of violent rioting.
Colum Eastwood@columeastwood
I’m astounded that @KemiBadenoch used footage of soldiers in Derry during Bloody Sunday in this video promoting the actions of the British Army. It’s disgusting, deeply offensive and an insult to the innocent civil rights protestors who soldiers killed that day.

BREAKING: "When this war ends, gasoline and oil and everything, it's going to come tumbling down."
"Other prices are way down, but gasoline's high. But when this is over, you'll have a world without a nuclear weapon with Iran. If you allow Iran to have a nuclear weapon, the world would be in great jeopardy. So it's not going to happen. As soon as the war ends, the gasoline prices will come down." - President Trump

Trump: "I heard Hakeem Jeffries, a low IQ person. He's a very low IQ."
English
The Government has said it will not oppose Aontú's bill which would extend voting rights for Irish presidential elections to all Irish citizens living in Northern Ireland

I made this point previously. There needs to a consensus with PRo UI parties regardless of their other policies … this needs to be the central thread that holds them together. Strategic electoral planning to maximise pro UI parties and representation in Stormont and WM.

Started The Wire from scratch again last night. Managed three episodes in one sitting
I still say that pound for pound it’s the greatest drama series of all time, just edging out Breaking Bad and The Sopranos
Any other suggestions for one of the top spots?

How long before we hear that we have to examine the context of the days before the Springhill Massacre before judging what the British army did that day….

@NeutralPulse_ @MatthewOToole2 Who said u couldn’t have an opinion? Ur bio conflicts with what u stated to me, I was just pointing that out. Not sure how I am to blame for anything considering I don’t make decisions on policy but if that’s ur opinion that’s fine. 👍
English
@Derryman_01 @MatthewOToole2 🙄 Not allowed to have an opinion - noted.
With respect John, your opinion is the main reason the standard of living in NI is horrendously low compared to elsewhere on these islands.
English
This is a genuinely disgraceful thing to say days after the Dunmurry attack.
Abandoning this place to London rule won't hasten unity but it will punish ordinary people for DUP/SF failure.
The Irish News@irish_news
'It's time for Sinn Féin to give up on this failing assembly' Irish News columnist Brian Feeney believes something needs to change ahead of the next assembly election in 2027. It follows Sinn Féin's ard fheis at the weekend, which saw senior party figures calling out the DUP. Feeney says the party underestimates the DUP’s 'fear and loathing' of them.
English
@NeutralPulse_ @MatthewOToole2 Ur bio states your neither Unionist or nationalist, so not sure how that plays out. I believe that other things are important too, but I also believe that the Island can be changed fundamentally with constitutional change, and those other things won’t be sorted with status quo.
English
@Derryman_01 @MatthewOToole2 Constitutional change is one policy in a list of others. There are more pressing matters at this time, and I say that as a strong nationalist.

It is absolutely unacceptable & completely wrong to blame British Jews for the actions of the Israeli state & Netanyahu's government.

I am absolutely horrified by the appalling attack on two Jewish Londoners.
My thoughts are with the victims, their loved ones and Jewish communities across the UK.
We must stand united against racist attacks - and defend a society that embraces the common humanity of us all.
