Trains to Dublin…. Can’t be having that in Loyalist parts of Belfast. They are beyond ridiculous in their bigotry. #NIPolitics #Loyalists #Bigots #Sectarianism #GrandCentralStation #Belfast Loyalists go boo hoo over the choo choo… – Slugger O'Toole https://sluggerotoole.com/2024/11/11/loyalists-go-boo-hoo-over-the-choo-choo/

You would think trains would be relatively inoffensive things. Ivor the Engine, Thomas the Tank engine, all great lads.Slugger O'Toole
Factory farming is wrong on every possible level; cruel, inhumane, pollution, and health. DAERA in NI are contradicting themselves here - belatedly expressing concerns about pollution, having enabled so many of these factory farms in the last ten years or so; currently putting a plan in place to try and save Lough Neagh and restore it.
At the same time, DAERA have announced an appeal against the court ruling that stops polluting gas caverns being excavated in a Marine protected area at Islandmagee. The company concerned has just bailed out of Harland & Wolff Shipyard in Belfast, as they have no money and lots of bills.
Why is DAERA talking out of both sides of its mouth? Why are they appealing a court ruling against a company with no money? Why pretend they are concerned with pollution in Lough Neagh, while hoping to overturn a ruling against pollution of a protected marine area?
Some years ago, Nichola Mallon of SDLP, reinstated sand dredging in Lough Neagh, despite a court ruling against it.
Lord/Earl of Shaftsbury gets a royalty for every tonne of sand dredged there. His family were gifted the lake bed several generations ago.

Claire Hanna is one very smart politician. She’s also extremely popular in her constituency, having increased her vote as an MP in the recent General Election.
She’s now the leader of the SDLP, and going on this, it looks like she will lead in the style of the late John Hume, where talking and engagement with everyone matters. She also takes no nonsense from the DUP/TUV.
