Referenda The same principle should apply to all. • Andy Burnham cannot have his referendum on Brexit while denying Scotland and Ireland our right to one. If one is on the table then all must be on the table. We cannot tolerate a la carte democracy. It’s not a pick and mix.

The UK has defied Netanyahu’s order to shut down its Consulate in Jerusalem saying Israel has no jurisdiction because it is an occupied territory.

The 87 year old woman who was evicted from her home in Spain has tonight died. She had lived there 70 years but couldn’t cope when a corporation raised her rent by 275%. RIP: Maricarmen Abascal

• Apartheid was legal • Nuremberg Laws were legal • Segregation on Alabama’s buses was legal • Section 28 was legal • The Special Powers Act was legal Legal doesn’t make it right. There are bad laws.

Number of Protestants signing public letter in support of the residents of the Garvaghy Road • 140 (8pm Thursday) • 400 (12am Thursday) • 480 (8am Friday) It. Will. Go. Higher.

🎶 oh, oh, oh, there’s no going back down Garvaghy 🎶 Christy Moore delivers.

Your reminder that just last month in Belfast at Fleadh Cheoil na hÉireann, Catholics and Nationalists applauded Orange bands from East Belfast joining in the festival. It was an act of unity and love that appalled the Orange Men in Portadown now trampling on Garvaghy residents.

Loyalists mocking people of Garvaghy Road for living happily alongside Muslims in harmony fails to grasp the lessons of history. As Muhammad Ali once said “I ain’t got no quarrel with the Vietcong. No Vietcong ever called me a _ _ _ _ _ _ “.

• Since 1999 the Orange Order, Unionists & loyalists have held 60,000 parades - at least 12,000 of those were Orange Order led. • 97% of loyalist and Orange Order parades were granted without any restrictions. Unfettered. Orange Order victimhood is artificially engineered.

• Article 11 of the European Convention of Human Rights (to which the UK is signed up) allows for “spontaneous demonstration” where no adequate means to lodge notification exists • Such as court overturning a Drumcree ban at 2am on a Sunday morning! Garvaghy’s demo was legal

• Section 25 of Parades Commission decision to allow Drumcree March says it based it on a judgment by the PSNI that there would be no disorder. • Meanwhile the PSNI drafted in 200 extra cops from Scotland. Did the PSNI mislead the commission or just get it horribly wrong?

Appalling decision by the Parades Commission to allow a fundamentalist triumphalist far right procession of sectarian bigotry down the Garvaghy Road. The consequences of this error will be felt for years to come.

Burnham’s Britain ✅ • 82 new dedicated Rape Courts to protect victims • 100 new community mental health walk in centres • 59 new dedicated mental health emergency departments • 1,000 new Best Start family hubs • 42 new Youth Hubs combining mental health & skills support

Jeremy Corbyn built the Labour Party to nearly 600,000 members. Guess how much 600,000 members paying a £5 monthly membership equates to? Answer: £36 million a year. You don’t need crypto bros when you have party powered by ordinary people like you and me.

🚨 Official 🚨 Zack Polanski has been democratically elected to be the Green Party candidate for the upcoming By Election in Starmer’s old seat.
