For the last few years since the CV19 scamdemic undocumented immigration into Ireland has surged. No one is allowed discuss it because they do not want any rational debate about it. If you do you are labelled an extremist. However this out of control immigration is fully facilitated by the Irish government and the EU and the shady figure behind the Neo Con movement pushing for endless war, wokeism and globalist agenda.

Belfast's May Day parade

A photographic journey

A large crowd turned out in Belfast city centre today for the May Day parade. I'm no good at calculating numbers so I'll just let the photos speak for themselves.

If anyone feels the need to use any of the photos from the parade, could you please credit me with taking them? Either that or you could give me a couple of quid; I don't mind either way.

The event kicked off from the Arts College where a number of trade union activists spoke on issues relevant to workers today. I missed the start but I heard Tayra McKee of the ATGWU speak about the importance of unionising migrant workers and the importance of solidarity between national and foreign national workers. Sam Nolan of DTUC spoke about capitalism and the class struggle, the occupation of Iraq and he quoted some Connolly (which we Belferstians love come May Day).
