    Why is no one following the Covid guidelines?

    Great example Mary Lou

    Sure Mary Lou had it already and will be immune.

    Maybe they are following UK guidance? Stay alert etc etc...

    They could at least have turned the old balaclavas into face masks.

    After the Michelle O'Neill saying nobody is exempt from C19 restrictions. She and the rest of them break the rules with impunity at another funeral this week.
    Let's see MLD get out of this one!

    As in no good, useless, morally bankrupt, perfidious, disingenuous. Which in fairness doesn't fall under either definition of the word put forward by yourself. However I do believe it can be used to describe a scumbag?

    First they came for the socialists...

    Time after time the rich and powerful think they are above the law.
    Im not picking on Sinn Fein, but in general the rich and powerful think they are above the law,

    In fact the photo proves they are above the law.

    Whatever about the lack of social distancing and what he did in later life. Bobby Storey must be called out here for his bravery in standing up for his community when they were under attack in the 70's and 80's. RIP.

    Curious about what he did in later life? I thought he supported the peace process and was held to be behind the Northern Bank raid and the raid on Castlereagh where they got loads on files on touts?

    His community were mainly under attack from himself. Bobby and the lads killed tortured and maimed more of their own than anyone else.

    ^ The very same media that didn't seem very concerned when the BLM protests totally ignored the covid restrictions and were treated like royalty.
    Total hypocrisy.

    This thread is not about the man in the box, its about the people outside the box setting examples to others when they should know better.
    Mary Lou having been on the wrong side of the virus and being a very intelligent person should know better, we have all had to so our respects to deceased recently without attending the services.

    An investigation? What about BLM protests, where was that investigation or even the media condemnation? It's only acceptable to criticise one if you criticise the other. For the record I criticise both.

    Looking like the psni are conducting an investigation into the breach of the regulations.

    Between this and no social distancing at the Gardaia funeral, it goes to show everyone's fed up of it all now

    Difference being that BLM weren't a government party laying down the law as to who and how many can attend funerals.

    Kind of disgraceful when people can't go to their own family members funeral at the moment. If you are not immediate family.

    I had forgotten about this, yes there was little social distancing practiced there. Now, to be fair, PSNI is part of a different jurisdiction so I suppose we don't know if they would've investigated BLM protests or the funeral of a fallen colleague of theirs. But our media can't really throw stones now if they didn't say anything for these two high profile sets of events.

    BLM shouldn't have been out either without social distancing , all as bad as each other. Same as the people at the beaches, etc

    They are all as bad as each other

    You do know that "the Brits" were originally sent in to protect the Catholic communities because the RUC/ Prods/ Loyalist/Paisley mob had started ethnic cleansing. "The Brits" want and wanted nothing to do with the sh1thole and would love to be stopped. Wouldn't put it past Boris to dump and run leaving us to keep the savages apart - without the cash reserves to bribe them

    That's what everyone thought they were originally sent in for and the Nationalist community welcomed them. Soon enough they started gunning innocent Nationalists down. Then they used loyalists as a proxy to continue killing Nationalists.

    I never said either were, but that's not the subject of this thread, and it has been discussed multiple times all over this place.
