That’s definitely not her wrote that her husband must run her SM I’ve seen a few questionable comments , he’d need to be careful how he replies to people as that’s her political account.Just seen this. Is she implying that black people built Donegal square in Belfast?
She’s lost the bleeping plot!
Yeah actually, when you mention it. The ‘lad’ bit doesn’t feel like something she would write.That’s definitely not her wrote that her husband must run her SM I’ve seen a few questionable comments , he’d need to be careful how he replies to people as that’s her political account.
Lapdog comes to mindAll very strange, I don't know much about the husband but from the bits I have seen and read about it feels like she's using him?
I’m not sure she/ he was implying blacks built it more the commentator is thick and probably knows nothing about Belfast themselves , either way it’s a bit petty for an elected/ selected public rep to bait people.Yeah actually, when you mention it. The ‘lad’ bit doesn’t feel like something she would write.
It’s literally called the Ulster American Folk Park what part has Africa played in Irish immigrant settlers? Isn’t that the rod they use to beat us with for why we should house the world?I saw this comment and thought it was bull but they really have changed their entire program by the looks of it. No issue with them doing an event but honestly the folk park is all about how Irish people were living like tit and were forced to get on boats elsewhere.
If they always did a Halloween event and thanksgiving event and have cancelled it that is a real shame

I don't get it either.It’s literally called the Ulster American Folk Park what part has Africa played in Irish immigrant settlers? Isn’t that the rod they use to beat us with for why we should house the world?
Was just what I was going to post next, We’ve had the Keralan community here for yrs and Chinese ,they celebrate their cultural events amongst themselves with an open invitation if other communities want to take part I can’t understand the constant need to force black culture on peopleI don't get it either.
I just checked and based on the census, Northern Ireland is 0.6 percent black. Asian ethnicity is actually higher, 1.6 percent!
'Other white' 5 percent, a lot of which must be Eastern European.
Why isnt there a Asian or Polish themed event at the Park?
It’s great we’ve taken the boys lots of times, even the old confederate battles and dancing is goodLooking forward to the rewriting of the history of the titanic.
BTW the folk park is really good. I went a while back with young family and they loved it and I took more in about the history than I did as a kid.
I wish the Chinese would force more of their succulent meals down my throat!Was just what I was going to post next, We’ve had the Keralan community here for yrs and Chinese ,they celebrate their cultural events amongst themselves with an open invitation if other communities want to take part I can’t understand the constant need to force black culture on peoplelike Grifty wouldn’t march King Billy in my direction I’d march him back again
it’s bizarre how these things are being forced on people.

That’s what I don’t understand? Is it only happening in Ireland or everywhere? Your culture is your culture it doesn’t matter how many events take place people will embrace what’s familiar to them, it’s not a crime nor is it belittling anyone else.I wish the Chinese would force more of their succulent meals down my throat!
The thing is I am all for us being more educated about slavery etc but pretending it had a huge factor her when that clearly wasn’t true is just bizarre. Like have an African American day in October to educate people but don’t erase what actually happened here. I haven’t researched much about the famine myself but know enough to know it was the English starving the Irish out. Simple as that,
You’ve never heard of Mervyn Gibsonwho is he? Is he the pastor?
I just wasn’t sure who and I don’t really get involved with orange stuff so didn’t really ojiw who he wasThat’s what I don’t understand? Is it only happening in Ireland or everywhere?

Top Orangeman says unionism lacked strategic thought at time of the flag protests and still lacks it on 1916 statue
Mervyn Gibson has critiqued unionism’s response to a statute to a 1916 rebel at Belfast City Hall, saying that if unionists had been more strategic then neither it nor the flag protests would have come to pass.www.newsletter.co.uk
