This'll be the same as TUV's Jim Allister stating that "it has transformed the feel in the area" after pogroms in Ballymena forced many from the ethnic minority community there to flee the town.
Once again, the community and volunteer sector have been left to pick up the pieces, a sector that is already over stretched and deliberately underfunded. Meanwhile, well funded gangs who claim to represent community and the interest of "ordinary people" are tearing the city apart.
The third year of pogroms. This one with 8 months advance notice. People need to lose jobs. Or resign.

Same DUP councillor who also put up on Facebook about “a man with a knife” in the park - the second biggest party governing here - allowing this to be put on social media is a ringing disgrace. It’s not Russia, or Iran, or Musk - it’s people from here doing this.
Volunteers and neighbours stepped in to get families to safety
