The DUP thread

[red hander]

If PSNI did their job on this and all that flags crap there wouldn't be a problem, but they're a useless shower of shite.

If it happens on council land are they not supposed to have the property in a safe condition to prevent injury?

How do you make ground safe so someone falling 30 odd foot, or whatever it was, onto it doesn't hurt themselves?

The problem here is there would be significant "anti-social" things which would happen if councils prevented these scales of bonfires happening. The council(s) are damned if they do and damned if they don't.

Requires political leadership. None exists. Carla Lockheart wants to get orange men back down the Garvaghy rd. so this is where this shit is at.

Hopefully there's an election pact there next time out and she gets the boot.

No self-awareness at all.

She could do with eating a good Sunday roast

She'd probably be better keeping her mouth shut. Every time it opens something vile comes out then she plays a sympathy card on getting slagged about what she looks like. Her opinions are vile - what she looks like doesn't matter.

I read a few tweets from a lad who used to work for CHEP (the blue pallet crowd) and they don't sell them, He said they'd contacted the PSNI about their pallets being on a bonfire and that they wanted them back, the PSNI called them back and said that it would be more hassle than it's worth and weren't going to do anything about it...

It wouldn't take a rocket scientist to know where these pallets come from, stolen or "donated" would be the most of them!

But they'll keep voting for her.

It's very clearly orchestrated and done for votes

Them pallets on those huge bonfires are bought. UDA/ UVF drug money.

Must be very large cash transactions well!
Should be easy for the PSNI to trace otherwise.

Not content with attacking firefighters now it's paramedics as well, can't even claim it was an isolated incident

That's exactly it

Same as Sammy Wilson  praising the boys  in Larne for their world record   bonfire height. Wasn't this the same bonfire where that man  died from last  year? Like , friggin hell.  It's all to appeal to the  Neanderthals thinking , so they'll  keep votinh for him.  These politicians  care not a jot about  community relations,  or the bigger things in society.  Better to keep  stirring the pot , because that keeps us relevant and in a big wage

Lockhart went on about  shared space the other night .  Funny that , because the last time I heard , there was a  banner supporting soldier F in portadown town centre  (and other areas), and  by all accounts, the town is decorated with the butchers apron every summer . Shared space , how are ye!

They're only in it for themselves.

Yeah, saw that. Crazy stuff.

Person on camera should have shouted at them and they'd have looked up.  Just to see their expression would have been class.

Hopefully it'll go viral.
