@uuponline @BeattieDoug Good god Unionist politicians are a complete embarrassment

⭕️Uselessspy2 years ago

Just to be clear. This is a man who flew to another continent to stab a man to death, and posted offensive anti catholic, misogynist and racist tweets but who is now complaining about one handed driving?

@uuponline @BeattieDoug Nonsense you along with many other Unionists had to turn a massive GAA win by an Ulster County Armagh into a sectarian shitshow. Only here could do that political Unionism and the biggest mouth in the country up to no good this morning🙄🙄❌

⚠️💥NEW PSNI surveillance: 'The UN intervenes in Russia & Belarus. It’s NOT normal in the north of Ireland.' 👥The United Nations has taken the 'rare step' of directly intervening in a case involving two solicitors who were subjected to unlawful surveillance by the PSNI. Solicitor Darragh Mackin told Chief Reporter James the situation is deeply depressing and has made it difficult to have confidence in government. PSNI Chief Constable Jon Boutcher has apologised for the unlawful surveillance of solicitors Peter Corrigan and Darragh Mackin, following publication of the McCullough Review. UN Special Rapporteurs have now issued a formal communication to the UK government, seeking immediate action on the case. Peter Corrigan says a response to the McCullough Review was required but has been “ignored completely.” The government has been approached for comment. Phoenix Law Belfast

🚨NEW: Army's top spy in IRA, Stakeknife, was taken on holiday by handlers on a military aircraft. 🔴We heard today how the double agent within the Provisional IRA, Stakeknife, was taken on holiday via military aircraft by Army handlers. 🔴This was while he was wanted by the RUC for conspiracy to murder and false imprisonment. 🎤PSNI Chief Constable Jon Boutcher told Chief Reporter James that Stakeknife was only interested in himself. The agent was widely believed to be west Belfast man Freddie Scappaticci, who was 77 when he died in 2023. The UK Government has been urged to name Stakeknife, with Chief Constable Jon Boutcher stating the refusal to do so is “bordering on farce”. MI5’s initial failure to disclose all it knew about the Army's top spy in the Provisional IRA during the Troubles was a “significant failure”, an independent report into the activities of Stakeknife has said. The final report of Operation Kenova said that MI5 had “earlier and greater knowledge” of Stakeknife than it had at first stated. Stakeknife is linked to 14 murders and 15 abductions where he worked in a IRA unit known as the "nutting squad."

🚨💥BREAKING: Andrew Muir will NOT be resigning and reveals he has been assaulted. 'The days of the Ulster Farmers’ Union dictating policy are over' 🎤🎥Minister Andrew Muir MLA tells Chief Reporter James that he will not be resigning, revealing he has received numerous threats to his life and has also been assaulted. It comes as the Ulster Farmers' Union calls for the Minister to resign over how a cull of 51 cattle near Fivemiletown was carried out. They were killed back in June following a court order after the cattle owner’s conviction on animal welfare grounds. It led to widespread complaints about the manner in which the cull was carried out. The UFU has also called for DAERA Permanent Secretary Katrina Godfrey and Chief Veterinary Officer Brian Dooher to resign. Responding to that, the Minister says the union should apologise for naming officials and questions where its leadership is. Minister Muir says the PSNI is now investigating an alleged assault.

This guy just rips into this officer. 😳 Anyone that ever had a bad day only to be iced off by getting pulled over? That seems to be where this guy is right here. He says just about everything that someone wants to say on a day like that, but usually we do not. He also brings up an interesting debate.. The law says he must present his ID and technically he is presenting it. Does that mean he needed to hand it to the officer or was he legal in what he did?

The DUP Minister has faced criticism over his recent trip to Israel, during which he visited a school and asked his department to publicise it on social media. She says this is not the view of a “pan-republican front,” but that ordinary, decent people have been hurt. Adds that if relationships at Stormont are damaged, that is down to Mr Givan.
