CIO won't be commenting further tonight on the dishonest and frankly, shameful, dissembling tweets from @GlasgowCC and @policescotland . Unless they are withdrawn we will publish, in full, all of the emails/texts from both orgs. Arrangements for Saturday will be publicised soon

When we organised, with the support of the Irish community, the TU movement and other progressive people to defend the Catholic community and it's churches, George Square became the focal point for the far right bigots of the OO and it's hangers-on. If @SusaninLangside and

They come once again to defend statues? Shouting ‘Fenian Bastards’, singing ‘Rule Brittania’ whilst attacking asylum seekers protesting their living conditions - these are our streets, these Far-Right racist thugs cannot be allowed to do this

If @policescotland are of the view that 'There is nothing to suggest the incident is sectarian or hate crime', can we suggest that there is something seriously wrong with their protocols and/or training?

After the last festival of anti-Catholic hatred took place in the summer, we wrote to the @ScotGovFM and the Chief Constable of @PoliceScotland to seek a meeting. The FM ignored us and the CC offered us a sergeant to talk to. Meanwhile, attacks on our churches continue...

As hard hitting an interview as you will see in Scotland on the anti-Catholic bigotry and anti-Irish racism which exists in our society. We stand firmly behind Neil, and all victims of this hatred. The culture of victim-blaming must end. It is time for us all to #callitout

"There's an effigy outside Tynecastle saying 'hang Neil Lennon'- that was before the game. Did I bring that on myself?" @HibernianFC head coach Neil Lennon hits back strongly at comments he is to blame for incidents at the Edinburgh Derby.

We are disappointed to learn that an anti-Catholic march has been approved for next Saturday (23rd) which goes down Abercromby St passing St Mary of the Assumption Catholic Church. We will be holding a peaceful counter-protest as the march passes and will be assembling at 11.15.

There appears to be a campaign of intimidation aimed at those people esp trades unionists who have supported our campaign to oppose anti-Catholic bigotry and anti-Irish racism. It's aim is to stop people mentioning this problem.

Important update - please read: The anti-Catholic march by the ABOD notified for 14 November and which was highlighted by us at 5pm this evening appears to have been re-routed 'by agreement on 04/11/2021'. This is very good news for the parish and the wider Catholic community.

Very dignified statement from the Very Rev Thomas Canon White following the sentencing of the man who spat on him.

In a brief but welcome respite for all the Catholics of the City of Glasgow there will be no anti-Catholic marches past any Catholic churches until at least 10th August and we very much hope that those listed for that day will be rerouted either voluntarily or by @GlasgowCC

We are dismayed that @PoliceScotland has raised no concern about an anti-Catholic march due to pass two Catholic Churches this Easter Sunday. The Catholic community must be protected from intimidation. Email @GlasgowCC on processions @ced .glasgow.gov.uk to register an objection.

We will assemble at 6.15 in front of the Church. We call on all progressive people to join us to stand in solidarity with the Catholic population of the parish and all Catholics in Scotland who are so regularly and egregiously subjected to state-facilitated organised hatred.

Our chair @JeanFind spoke to That's TV about anti-Catholic marches passing Catholic churches: "Peace is not just the absence of violence. There is no peace when people are allowed to march in military fashion past your place of worship telling you that they don't like you."

There will be another anti-Catholic march on Saturday 18th which will pass St Alphonsus at approximately 12.30. Clearly we need much bigger numbers as @policescotland and @GlasgowCC are not listening to us. Please bring your TU or Party banners with you and email us in advance.
