And taking it down is kind of pointless when it’s going to burnt like a day after it goes up anyway
Re media attention – I think there were a few more eyeballs on Glastonbury than wherever the fuck this bonfire is, and that issue drew global attention (even without the U.K. police doing anything). It would be bizarre to escalate this bonfire (was it even this year?) to the same level.
Anyway, is your argument that both should be punished or neither? It seems unclear
Idiots need to grow the fuck up
People still trying to rewrite history that Kneecap got in trouble for simply saying death to the IDF and conveniently leaving the rest out😂 Not going to work lads.
“North of Ireland a part of my countr…..” *Fart noise fart noise fart noise*
Here was i thinking it was slang for Ketamine.
Yes, that’s what it is. That’s why there was a war.
Well, at least they have to go through the humiliation of buying a tricolour. (To them)
The flag seller is doing great business out of it.
The real humiliation is that there are more of us in the rest of England than the 6 counties and we still out number them there!
A completely fair point. This is nothing but incitement of violence but it’s done every single year without anyone in the UK govt kicking stink at any real level.
yes it is 100% state sanctioned sectarianism.
> Not a dicky bird from Brit media.
Worth remembering that, collectively, the mods of this sub now routinely repress coverage and awareness of it all and its full extent too.
Not taking a position in it.
But a non violent demonstration by people that feel like they’re losing their heritage ain’t a surprise. I don’t really care though, I don’t pay attention to what’s on it. Who sees it, if you don’t look at it?
P.s I expecting to be downvoted for this but I think are more serious issues in NI then an flag on a bonfire.
I am from the republic of Ireland, and though I never left my town in Kingdom Kerry until iI was 19 or so years old I enjoyed my visit up to the north and liked many people there, I tend to try to take people as they come. This event is dangerous and very unfortunate… and I would like to see this kind of outright hate speech more throughly restricted and policed.. it can never be given space to breath in our country.
I don’t understand (A) how blatant and widespread calls for genocide against Irish Catholics are allowed each and every year and (B) how some Unionism do not see that this only hastened the end of British rule.
North of Ireland? Where’s that? There’s no such place.
Typical post just to try stir up tribal shite well done op…not ….its September many better things ahead ..Halloween. Xmas etc and your fixated on bonfires etc .That is also a two way street ie.Derry as the saying goes..Wind your neck in !!

You only got internet now after the 12th OP ?
Strange to have bonfire outrage in early September
Irish catholics in the North of Ireland considered second class by the British establishment, hardly new.
Do you have any other more positive observations?
yeah it is more than a fair point but we all know that here. better off posting this somewhere that everyone doesn’t already know this id say
Lads do we really have to do this in September, marching season and all this shite literally just ended.
Are we still doing this
Any opinions on this?

The issue is pinning the blame on an individual
