As my favourite politician used to say "the problem with socialism is that you eventually run out of other people's money"
This is not the first time this SF ministers idiotic policies have had real world consequences, is it?

@RussellThen @News_Letter But that would exclude others in a way DUAL language signage doesn't
🇬🇧 or 🇮🇪 displayed as a SINGULAR partisan emblem is, manifestly, not the same as street signage nor do they have a practical function which DUAL language does - often showing Anglicised names of Gaeilge origin
English
@anruuc44 @News_Letter There'd be an equal demand in loyalist areas for the council to erect signs with the union jack or the orange order logo on them. Demand isnt the issue. It's whether the council should meet the demand and mark territory for one section of the community so as to perpetuate ghettos

Irish street signs near Orange Hall in Portadown could ‘intimidate and threaten’ trib.al/QfXeEVJ

Thought of the day
In Northern Ireland 100% of the residents that were born there were born British 🇬🇧
In the Irish Republic 100% of the residents that were born there were born Irish 🇮🇪
English
@RussellThen @News_Letter The lawful process to create signs which represent English & Gaeilge placenames is used because there is demand
You must realise is the era of cultural suppression of Gaeilge is over
Hundreds, if not thousands, of people from Unionist & Protestant backgrounds learn the language
English
@anruuc44 @News_Letter English is the language of both communities and is therefore neutral. Adding Irish is at the behest of one community to mark territory and perpetuate division. Not something ABC Council should be doing.
English
@RussellThen @News_Letter Further, the erection of DUAL language signage follows a consultative, lawfully mandated process in accordance with international best practice on minority language protections
True territory marking is using ONE sided symbolism & emblems exclusive of others in a shared space
English
@RussellThen @News_Letter Adding Gaeilge to an English sign is parity. That's manifestly obvious
This issue has a silver lining because it exposes supremacy and the inability, by some insecure people, to accept other cultural expressions, even those that are indigenous to the island & pre-date English.

@BaronoftheMaine The data confirms that the claim made in the tweet simply cannot be held to be true
The evidence shows what many experts have characterised as the 'two conflict nature of the NI 'troubles'
The singular Sectarian civilian murdering approach came from collusion assisted Loyalism
English
Unionists endured a 30-year sectarian campaign of bombings and murder from SF/IRA.
Yet Michelle cries fouls when the DUP outclass her in the political field?
Sinn Fein have never ‘done partnership.’
Her delusion is astounding.
The Irish News@irish_news
"They don't do partnership." Sinn Féin's First Minister Michelle O'Neill claims the DUP "attack Irish national identity at every turn" as she described the current relationship between the two parties in the Executive. Read and watch the full interview here: tinyurl.com/hr9zazjd

@ScotExpress @SteveSayersOne He is right. At the very least, Swinney was woefully insensitive.
Should the family of the wee boys whom the IRA murdered in Warrington be expected to ‘move on’ - which means forget IRA crimes?

@ScotExpress Dear Scots, there is a DUP Party leader attempting to capitalise on what he hopes is your lack of knowledge of our little Colonial region - Dysfunctonia

@News_Letter Hi @BenLowry2
You and your paper regard NI, the Province and Ulster as synonyms.
In both opinion columns and reportage.
So, you know.
Come on now.

Bobby Sands was a terrorist.
Indoctrinating a generation to believe otherwise is beyond depraved.
Shame on Charlie.
Shame on Sinn Fein.
Charlie Currie@CharlieCurrie12
The vast majority of children of this generation are going about their business with a wee smile on their faces. Not hearing the laughter that Bobby wrote about so eloquently, but thanks to him & all his comrades things are better now. Giggles will come after unity.

@AlexKane221b The green gunk on the lough, produced by eutrophication, will prevent your flotilla, I'm afraid Alex.....
Perhaps, the multimillionaires in the Agriculture sector who have destroyed the lough will build you a funeral pyre as an alternative,
....you could enquire with DUP (&SF)
