Totally normal day again in Nornarnia. A DUP political calling on proscribed organisations to end the violence. Surely Kingston should be supporting and encouraging the PSNI to do what they can not the UVF and UDA.

I mean it shouldn’t be the situation but it is the situation. He’s technically not wrong in that with the amount of power these organisations hold in their communities they could snap their fingers and stop the trouble.
Don’t see a problem with this. If loyalist paramilitaries could stop the riots that would be great.
But they won’t because they benefit from them.
Em isn’t that literally his job? Shouldn’t his influence be enough or why would he need him?
John Hume approach?
Talk to (not necessarily lovely or nice people) with influence or sway in a particular area in order to end disturbances and replace the disorder with dialogue etc .
Loyalist paramilitaries are highly involved in this.
“Criminals have an important role to bring this to an end. They should use their influence to stop doing crime”
I fucking hate this country sometimes. Clown show stuff.
How can they use their influence to stop themselves? Isn’t that an oxymoron.
anywhere else in the world an elected official asking a designated terrorist organisation to help end fascist race riots would be an insane premise.
Seems strange for the state to call on terrorists to solve the streets, this is some pre GFA sounding shit.
DUP are the political wing of the UVF/UDA
And who does he think is instigating this racist shit in the first place? Maybe a local organisation previously aligned with Combat 18 and the NF perhaps?
His wee head would explode if Michelle even hinted the Ra could lend a hand. Fucking hypocrite wanker.
Now just for a second imagine the DUP response if Michelle said she needed the IRA’s help to stop facist riots in a nationalist area. Like half of their heads would literally explode at the notion.
No doubt theyll be looking yet another kickback before lifting a finger.
Hell, they got paid for agreeing not to put up flags celebrating paramilitary groups over the Twelfth
They’re rioting in New York, better call Tony Soprano
We used to be such a civilised place. You only got your home or business burnt out if you were behind on drug payments. Now look at us, so sad.
All this is is a very, _very_ indirect way of the DUP acknowledging who is at the helm here and asking them to knock it off…
…and all a little _too_ politely and circuitously for my liking.
Unionists had a meltdown over the PSNI waving an Armagh flag after the all Ireland Final win.
The DUP sent a delegation to meet with the PSNI over it.
Jim Allister had the perpetual rage dialled all the way up to 1690.
TUV have the head staggers over Translink promoting Armagh’s all Ireland final place and not the 12th.
Kingston comments about a proscribed organisations helping to bring violence to an end instead of the PSNI……and silence.
Now imagine Michelle O’Neill doing the same over the RA, every Unionist leader, commentator, and their granny would be on the airwaves demanding her immediate resignation and shipped off to the south before sundown.
oh plz ira has been involed in all their re branded names
I’d also ask paramilitaries to “use their influence” to help end disorder … they could get a head start on this by ceasing to exist.
The tail wagging the dog or the dog wagging its tail?
