Molloy condemns anti-Irish racism in Tyrone

Sinn Féin MP Francie Molloy has condemned the vandalism of bilingual street signs in Annaghmakeown, Co.Tyrone.

 

The Mid-Ulster MP said:

 

“In recent weeks we have seen anti-Irish racism raise its ugly head in Tyrone, with the GAA being the focus of abuse. 

 

“The latest incident in Annaghmakeown with bilingual street signs being vandalised did not happen in isolation, but is instead apart of a wider campaign within reactionary elements of loyalism targeting Irish identity. 

 

“There is no excuse or justification for this vandalism.

 

“It is absolutely unacceptable and must be unreservedly condemned by all.

 

“The Irish language is growing from strength to strength in Tyrone and those involved in this petty activity will not succeed in undoing this progress.

 

“I would urge anyone with information about this vandalism to bring it to the attention of the PSNI.”

Out-of-touch government vote to increase petrol and diesel prices, and refuse to support struggling homeowners - @PearseDoherty

“The longer Fine Gael and Fianna Fáil are in power, the worse things will get for those struggling with the cost of living.”

Tonight the Government voted to make ordinary people's lives more difficult.

Fianna Fáil Fine Gael & the Greens voted to hike petrol & diesel prices TWICE in October, & rejected a Sinn Féin plan to provide struggling homeowners with mortgage interest relief. It's time for change

Great to meet Sarah & Sonya of @WomensAidNI today.

Ending violence against women and girls needs to be a priority for us all so we are hugely concerned that as a key partner Women’s Aid Federation’s core funding from @healthdpt will end in days & urge their funding be continued.
