Immigrants do not have to contribute exceptionally to deserve safety
Immigrants do not have to permanently grovel to their new country to justify their existence
Immigrants are allowed to be just as mediocre, grumpy or homesick as anyone else
Condemning riots isn't enough. We need policy action, including an immediate appraisal of X as a vehicle for coordinating far-right disorder. And we need political leadership, to challenge white nationalism as an idea, not to validate it daily and then complain when it turns violent.
English commentators need to stop analysing Northern Ireland through an English lens!
When you see anti-immigrant riots in Belfast, Ballymena or Larne and immediately reach for "Britain's far-right problem", you're missing half the story.
This isn't just racism. It's loyalist terrorism.
