This time,50yrs ago, was the first Christmas without our mother. It hasn’t got any easier,not just for our family,but for any family who have lost a loved one,regardless of the tragedy So thinking of all our loved ones today, a little prayer to Jesus say. Gone but never forgotten

@RuthDE Dear Ruth, tell me, you're a historian, what would you write about McGurks Bar ? Would you write about the lies told by the BA,RUC and press, the collusion with UVF. What about files being destroyed,lost hidden,FOIA being extended, families denied Truth & Justice. Would you ?

@SimonHarrisTD Margaret Thatcher was responsible for the worst years of troubles here in N.I. She created more hatred and division. BTW I'm not a republican I'm a Catholic , and like many others, I have suffered because of her decisions

Families mark 50th anniversary of McGurk’s Bar atrocity . This was at the start of the troubles, the worse atrocity, mass murder of 15 innocents. 50 yrs, half a century, and not one of the leading Political Parties sent any condolences. Shame on you all

@AngelaReville1 @planetjedward Before you lecture anyone, it’s better you know what you’re talking about, after you go down and read books on Irish and European History, you’ll need to apologise to the boys.

@J_Donaldson_MP will you arrange for a delegation to meet with the Parades Commission,regarding the parade in memory of UVF terrorist Brian Robinson, you have stated many times, how wrong it is to eulogise terrorists, I’m sure you’re aware of the hurt it causes their victims

3/ When he re-entered the room, he walked to my father ,saluted him, and apologised. He ordered the rest of the patrol to leave the house. It seems my father and his service in the British Army, during the war, warranted great respect. The harassment didn't stop there. 😡

@SFIntDept @sinnfeinireland @moneillsf @Ogra_SF @MaryLouMcDonald @mattcarthy @PatSheehanMLA @DeclanKearneySF We're refusing to buy goods or going to shops that favour Israel. We're walking the streets calling for a ceasefire. One thing that we could ask you to do is refuse to go to US , that would let the Irish Americans know how we feel. They then would put pressure on Biden.

@JimAllister @moneillsf 3/ You spew hatred every time . You offer no confidence to the Catholic people. You do not speak of equality. Your time within government was and is to keep Catholics as second-class citizens. We want peace and unity . @moneillsf speaks of that . You don't.
