Why are loyalists rioting?. Answers I’ve heard 1. Bobby Storey funeral. 2 NIP 3.erosion of culture 4. Lack of opportunity. What I believe are the issues⬇️
1. Bobby Storey funeral was huge SF mistake. The argument is that is example of SF entitlement. Nationalists want an equal say in gov. SF need to wise up and reflect on the hurt they cause. However Rangers celebration, UVF gathering and loyalists funeral have all happened.
2. NIP 70% of unionists voted brexit with no consideration for effects on the island. Conscious unionist (30% didn’t). In the interest of all citizens the most efficient way to manage divergence is at 4 ports,not at over 300 roads. WM acknowledged this. Your country voted this.
3.Culture:Loyalists are not denied their marching season.They live in the UK. There isnt discrimination in Jobs & housing . Marches are banned in places where they arent wanted hardly an injustice. Is there a E rising parade in the shankhill?It’s 2021 other opinions matter in NI.
.4.opportunity: Look at the most deprived areas of NI. They are equally shared by both traditions. If that’s the reason to riot then it’s elected representatives and support from the British government that is lacking. Poverty is not Ireland’s, EU or nationalists doing.
