Louden expresses no remorse for Joe Paton, the "very quiet" working man he subjected to an awful death. Despite IRA claims to be non-sectarian, from Louden’s own lips spew a host of sectarian & racist terms. Yet this is a man many people regard as a hero, chanting 'up the Ra'. ht

The man who murdered our printer 50 years ago is now laughingly boasting of his exploits, yet exposes his lies & bigotry. Thomas Louden didn't speak to me when I knocked his door yesterday - but the newspaper he bombed has obtained a telling video of him. https://t.co/rypx4KtMj3 24.7K views · 224 likes · 72 reposts · 25 replies Open on X →

Northern Ireland's devolved government is in effect insolvent. It has become an unwelcome UK experiment in what happens when fiscal discipline collapses - and Stormont has little incentive to control its spending. London talks tough, but keeps acting weak. https://t.co/ScL3TL9wH8 11.5K views · 67 likes · 19 reposts · 23 replies Open on X →

More money well spent by Stormont. Sometimes all one can do is marvel at the wisdom of our rulers. It's frankly outrageous that the horrid Treasury isn't sending billions more so that Jayne Brady can get a proper pay rise. Shocking austerity. https://t.co/rZe78vYNbQ 18.5K views · 58 likes · 8 reposts · 12 replies Open on X →

When the Belfast Telegraph was bombed by the IRA in 1976, the 800 staff took refuge in St Anne's Cathedral. At midday on Saturday - the day our printer Joseph Paton died from his injuries - there will be a memorial service for him in St Anne's. All are welcome. https://t.co/2LazY

Some more details here: The book cotains four parts in which each writer sets out with equal force what to them seem the best arguments for Irish unity, and then the best arguments for the status quo. As a whole, the book is neutral on the question. https://t.co/cqguOMRnrq 4.7K views · 15 likes · 3 reposts · 5 replies Open on X →

📢Some news from me: I've written a book with the erudite & eloquent Fintan O'Toole in which we each argue for - and then against - Irish unity, setting out objectively what seem to us each side's best arguments, and the issues people across the island of Ireland should consider.
