Brilliant work.

Interestingly, BBC clarifies the law here, that in addition to all the other laws being broken including stalking and harassment etc - filming for commercial purposes could also contravene data protection law. Something far-right monetisers do routinely.

2. What is the purpose of harvesting intel if it is not used to dismantle terror and far-right structures? 3. What violence, from attempted murder to pogroms, involves state assets? 4. Who has oversight of these operations? [4/4]

There should be a complete shut down of all policing practices in N. Ireland that has got us to the point where Sinclair is only being investigated as a result of Scottish violence. 1. Who are the state assets, and how many have PSNI been protecting? [3/4]

During the last three pogroms, from investigation to prosecution, the PSNI and NI DoJ have privileged loyalist far-right individuals and groups leading to what is effectively - impunity being handed down by the state. [2/n]

“Previously the UK government had provided assurances that there would be no checks whatsoever over the land border. “They are now committing to intensifying checks. This shift is concerning, particularly as there remains a lack of clarity on the legislative basis for these checks.”' [5/5]

“People in N Ireland are already subjected to disproportionately high levels of immigration checks,” “The legislative basis for these checks is often unclear, low arrest rates suggest that they are not intelligence led, and there have been many accusations of racial profiling.’ [4/n]

.. as well as being a political sop to unionist politicians with ulterior motives. This lack of 'legislative clarity' point is important: 'A spokesperson for the Committee for the Administration of Justice has said a shift in conducting checks on cross-border travellers is “concerning”. [3/n]

The Home Office said it won’t comment, which is strange since they regularly use operational videos, social media and press statements to whip up hysteria on immigration. We suspect that their activities are contrary to Common Travel Area rights, and provisions in the Good Friday Agreement.. [2/n]

…breach of the peace, obstruction and resisting arrest. Videos have also circulated on social media showing people of colour being confronted on the streets of Glasgow.’ [5/5]

Via The National Scotland who headlined the story as ‘A Dangerous Escalation’. ‘The Unite the Clans protest at Glasgow Green on Saturday saw disorder and multiple violent incidents, leading to some 15 arrests being made by police, including for possession of an offensive weapon, assault .. [4/5]

Scotland is still referring to this violence as ‘disorder’ despite the numerous Nazi salutes reported. What this violence actually represents is known far-right terror, escalated by known violence & terror linked individuals who were operating on the streets during the June 9 pogrom in Belfast.[3/n]

Kane is currently awaiting the conclusion of his trial from August 2024 for possessing material likely to stir up hatred. Why are these men free to promote and escalate violent racist events? Sinclair is a known monetiser of the events, but allowed to travel freely and profit from violence. [2/n]

The data and intel disproves the Justice Minister’s capitulation to terror as unfounded. We’ve received multiple reports of thuggish ‘rogue police’ style behaviours from Border Force operating in packs in Grand Central Station in Belfast. Hands off the CTA, Border Force out of our city. [2/2]

‘“They are two headbangers and they’ve really p****d the UDA off by bringing lots of police into the area and focusing attention on loyalists in the Coleraine and Portrush area. ‘It’ll only be a matter of time before the UDA shuts that Our Northern Ireland Voice group down for good.’ [3/3]

‘Two weeks ago, the terror gang [UDA] shot up Mark Brown’s house on the outskirts of Portrush, and Dan Grundle later received a confirmed death threat which he blamed on a “Muslim brotherhood” but which sources said really came from loyalist paramilitaries.’ [2/3]

Far-right agitators associated with groups with violent extremist histories operating in plain sight in our city should sound alarm bells about the nature of the relationship that security forces maintain with far-right extremist groups active in the North. [6/6]

As news breaks of a car being driven into Berlin Pride, killing one and injuring many more - Martin’s activities yesterday should be understood in a context of attacks on LGBTQ+ people globally. Martin has form and was removed from last month’s antiracist rally in Belfast. [5/6]

Entering a rally space and filming the identities of people to put online in far-right hate spaces places members of the public at harm. It is intended to have a chilling effect, a suppression of others exercising their ECHR right to protest for fear of harassment or retaliation. [4/n]

GAA participants, as well as the LGBTQ+ population as a whole. There is clear intent to stir up hate and incite violence. The leader of the National Front is not a neutral or a documenter of events. [3/n]
