Sinn Féin and DUP meet British Royal Para Commander Charlie Windsor as Bloody Sunday families vow to fight on.
Today, Sinn Féin & DUP met with British royal and future King of England, Charlie Windsor, the Commander-in-Chief of the Parachute Regiment, as Bloody Sunday families vow to fight on.
The meeting came less than a day after the families fight for justice again appeared in the headlines, as British courts upheld a decision NOT to prosecute fifteen soldiers in relation to the massacre.
As those families considered their next steps in obtaining justice for the deaths of their loved ones at the hands of the notorious death squad, Britain’s Parachute Regiment, the political ‘leadership’ of the failed Six County state were meeting the Commander-in-Chief of that very same force.
Hillsborough Castle, on Irish soil, the ‘official residence’ of the most senior members of Britain’s occupying forces, the British Royal family, was visited today by delegations from Sinn Féin and the DUP.
Michelle O’Neill and Declan Kearney of Sinn Féin, along with Arlene Foster and Nigel Dodds of the DUP posed in front of an ornate desk, littered with an array of family photographs of the British royal family. Those photos included his closest family members, including his son and grandson; heirs to the British throne.
We ask, what exactly does a welcome mat for foreign royalty and Imperialism achieve, if not justice for those that have died at the hands of its most notorious enforcers?
Justice for the Bloody Sunday and Ballymurphy massacres.
