He may be obsessed but its hard to justify no matter what side you are on.

Interestingly the priest said the rules were enforced inside the grounds so obviously the issue is on the way to the burial.

Its a f**king tough one - how do you stop people wanting to pay their respects (albeit this looks like it was organised rather than people just showing up)

That's it though, no one is trying to justify it, even Michelle O'Neill.

They were wrong to do it in so close a proximity to each other and has rightly been condemned across the board.

And it is not a Sinn Fein thing, its a general thing. In my family we had a funeral a few weeks ago. We told everyone it was family only and we took it from there. If you leave it open to people to attend then you will lose control. People will feel they need to sympathise and will break the 2m rule and handshake rule.

We had that at a funeral at the start of things. No one was really fully aware of it but as it turned out a woman who attended the wake ended up with it albeit mild. Was very hard on the family trying to deal
With the whole thing. There's going to be a huge mental health fallout from this

SF should be taking the lead on this. Setting a  They are the largest Nationalist Party. Yet they have repeatedly went their own road. Mo'N with her solo runs and now not following social distancing rules. Leadership. #Equality #Respect #Integrity.

So Sinn Fein should inform all their members on how they must hold a funeral and if they dont adhere they will be kicked out of the party, is that it? Of course that is a ridiculous thing to think. Funerals are private family calls, the law of the land is the rules you follow. All any group can do is advise everyone to follow the rules and guidelines

You're right. We're all in this together but it's to much to ask SF to change their ways. I agree. They should, as is always the case, be the exception.

People at a funeral are not "Sinn Fein", they are people at a funeral. There are probably lots of things that would be fair game to be critical of SF on but not this.

People at SF councillor's funeral are not SF people. Even the SF people. They are just people and definitely not SF people.

Do you think or research before you actually write? This man was a SF councillor in the 80's. SF did not organise the funeral. In fact Michelle O'Neill called it out. if you want to hold SF to account then make sure you are on solid ground based on fact otherwise we can just confirm you as a troll.

Do 8 lads with white shirts, ties, sun glasses and black gloves usually just turn up at funerals in the North and just happen to walk in single file each side of the hearse?

You got there before me. Funnily enough, they seem to be the only ones who might be marching - sorry, walking - two metres apart.

Criticism aimed at SF here a bit misplaced. This man was an ex-SF councillor. Some of those boys in white shirts wouldn't be big fans of SF. Not nowadays anyway.
