The 'bloodiest fighting between republicans since the Civil War' ended 50 years this week. Left deep scars and immense bitterness in nationalist Belfast. Barely a hint of reflection on it these days.

If you're a Sinn Féin member and you wish to ensure the party takes the correct direction at this vital juncture I encourage you to write to them today asking them to be much more careful in their language and policies regarding immigration. Particularly Matt Carthy. Please. #Spéirgorm
Was interested to read SF announcing they expelled a party member as their partner is implicated in the recent Far Right terrorist bombing plans - yet no mention of taking Carthy's dog whistle away.

TH pushed the envelope again, got a little bit of pushback, but not much, and so will do so again. He'll be on Fash podcasts in a year's time. Same process with Lazlo, who people are also being very quiet about.
