Shameful

The silence over whats going on at St Patricks and last night from politicians is totally shamefull!

Its a bit rich Nelson!

Once again Nelson McCauland posts this time about an IRA commeneration at a GAA pitch. While nothing unusual in that and he is entitled to his opinion but its a bit rich Nelson preaching about equality and respect after the shameful display outside St Patricks at the weekend. I note Nelson has so far refused to blog about that issue.

Perhaps he is still waiting on the DUP media team coming up with a blog post for him that passes blame to those who stupidly engaged in confortation. This only gives an excuse to people like Nelson and Dodds to use that to deflect attention away from the bigots on the march of shame.

Silence of the Nelson

The ministers pen must have run out of ink after the disgraceful actions of the parade yesterday. Pics on the telegraph show foul mouthed marchers hugging their wkd as they give the finger to people. The bigitory from those marching and supporting was evident fir all to see.

The brief trouble a stupid act that resulted in headlines that ignored the sorry procession passing St Patricks.

I am sure when Nelson buys some ink he will come up with some weak excuse for the marchers, may as well just sign on as a bigot yourself Nelson!

Walking past a chapel!

Well now we see the real face of parades as they totally ignore all laws and do as they please. Here we have  a bunch of people who really do think its still 1690 and they run the place. Be interesting to see what happens next and if the PSNI begin to arrest some of those involved.

By the way tossing bricks at cops takes the eye of the ball here and gives those who broke the law today somewhere else to point the finger at.

By the way this is a link on the Conway band site.      

Tombo took a stand and joined the ranks of young men, in No5 Platoon, A Company, 1st Belfast Battalion, Y.C.V.

Maybe Nelson Mc Causland should reconsider his support for this band when their support for a group such as the YCV is faily evident from their site,.

Nelson and Republicians

Seems Nelson judging by his latest post has an issue with membership of residents groups in Carrick Hill. Nelson doesn't seem to have the same reservations when he works with current and past loyalist  on the parades issue in North Belfast.

Beginning to think he has more in common with Lord Nelson that suspected. He was also blind in one eye!!!

Nelson takes great pleasure in trawling the web and local papers to get the names and when possible pictures of those who oppose unionism and parading in particular and then posting as much information as possible about them on the web.

Just as well the bad old days are "over". I wonder how all this one sided approach fits in with his Christan beliefs. Love your Neighbour springs to mind in this case. Maybe Nelson reads it as plaster your neighbours details all over the web.

How can Nelson claim to represent the people of North Belfast when from his posts he only sees one side of every argument?

The Ministers Pen

Just looking at the good ministers blog again. Its really leaves one with no opinion other than the fact Nelson sees only one side of an argument. Every post is a sly dig at something Nationalist or Catholic. Almost every case he makes is in direct response to a move by some nationalist organisation or another. Every thing he recommends is just the same. If the AOH jumped off a cliff I reckon Nelson would post for the OO to do the same.

It gets tiring reading some of his stuff displaying a narrow view of life in the North. He rarely posts anything of real importance For example what is he and his department doing about the 20,000 plus people in Housing Stress? Nothing much I would say. Actually I have asked him so will see how he responds.

His posts remind me of the DUP 20 years ago. Blaming the enemy for everything wrong in society. I see nothing there that attempts to bring people together everything I read gives me the opposite feelings, blog postings that continue to blame the enemy for all the problems, playign to the lowest auidence really. Oh look we cant walk past a chapel, but they can walk past a church!! But that doesn't help the problem just feeds the ignorance!! I actually dont think I have seen evidence of an orgional thought on the entire blog site form the minister really.

On the "to be fair" side he does approve osme comments. I assume those he feels comfortable taking on. Others he toally ignores,other than to disapprove of course!

Nelson Makes the Headlines

According to this mornings Irish News Nelson faces the prospect of court for one of his one sided posts. Be interesing to see what happens next??

Inside Ardoyne

Another post from MLA Nelson Mc Causland about Ardoyne. Nelson seems to forget there are thousands of people in Ardoyne who cover the full scope of political opinion. Nelson forgets Ardoyne like the Shankill and other areas has to cope with large scale unemployment, no large scale business, school closures, drugs and all the other issues people from all sides in the North have to deal with. Nelson would do better telling us how he is going to help the people in these areas as opposed to continually sniping and avoiding the real issues today. His post again shows a one sided view of almost everything.

He is a one issue politician, Parades. He appears to be interested in nothing in North Belfast other than Parades. Perhaps thats how both he and the DUP stay in power. Continually building up the seige mentality in North Belfast. Pitting one side aganist the other while doing nothing to address the real day to day issues that effect the population there.

Its time he moved on and actually explained who he represents. Do you represent the community in North Belfast Nelson or only one side of it? Indeed do you only represent the DUP and none of the people?

Nelson and Human Rights

Once again we have the minister posting another totally one side blog. This time its about human rights people observing both sides at the recent parade in Ardoyne. Nelson fails to say they had to run for it as they felt under threat by groups of men from Woodvale asking them personal details, name, address etc.

I cannot understand how he can do his job as a minister when his outlook on life in the North is so one sided as it appears to be from his posts. How can he take a decisiion based on fairness when his posts only seem to show one sided views of almost everything??

Nelson then goes rambles on about numbers protesting. Perhaps Nelson would have liked a crowd of thousands out as opposed to the small group who did appear. He fails to address any issue re the parades and what could be done to sort this out once and for all!!!

Hey Nelson - 53 Million Years Ago!

Any chance of Nelson commenting on

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/science-environment-19077439

Suppose as much chance as him bloggin in Ulster Scots!!

Disagree with Nelson? Dont Comment

I see Nelson doesn’t like to authorise comments from a lot of those who point out the error of his ways and the way he dances around questions in his attempts to inject some wit onto the Internet!

So where does this leave us?

1.      Nelson refuses to debate those who actually try and get him to stick to the question.

2.      Nelson will only approve the odd post from those who disagree with him

3.      Nelson likes posts that hit Ardoyne and those who live there as republican scum as proven by this comment which I assume as the blogger he approved "Ardoyne a breading place for sectarian hate, bigotry and murderers."

Come on Nelson your supposed to be representative of the entire electoral area not just little bits of it. What was it you said about the North Belfast News something like should be called Parts of North Belfast News! Bit like your blog then isn’t it?

Nelson Strikes again

Another post from Nelson. Its good to know that he takes the word of Oglaigh na hEireann (ONH) re the riots. Usually someone with a background like Nelsons would be calling them all the scum of the day. Interesting how he feels able to report their statements when it suits his argument!!


Guess with tomorrow being Sunday Nelson will be offline for a bit.

Oh for the record this blog totally disagrees with the violence in Ardoyne from both siides involved. Unlike Nelson this blog does not wear blinkers!

On and for information this blog unlike Nelsons will publish each and every non abusive comment received.

A fashion-conscious rioter at Ardoyne?

Once again another one sided post from Nelson. Think that will be the opening line for any post referring to Nelson. This time Nelson decides he is not only the judge but the jury as well as he names an alleged rioter (name was public anyway) but Nelson fails to mention the guy is innocent until proven guilty. Nelson tries to add some wit to his obvious relish in the post and only adds the word alleged in the final couple of paragraphs.

How does Nelson know he went home to change? Was he there (oh he was that’s right with the loyalist protesters who had just finished rioting (alleged) as well)

How in fact do the PSNI know he went home? Did they follow him? Did they have an eye in the sky? Feet in the crowd?

Come on Nelson, fill us all in, enquiring minds want to know how you know?

By the way you can hear the bands all over North Belfast including the Cliftonville. Come on Nelson you should know that!

nelsons view

Just found Nelson Mc Causlands blog. Dont think I have seen anything as one sided in a long time. Nelson spends his time on and on about poor reporting, one sided news paper reports and inaccurate stories. He then goes on to produce blogs posts that do just that. Talk about rose tinted, or should that be orange tinted, glasses. Nelson only appears to see out of one eye (no pun intended).

He wanders around the story, picking out anything to support his statement while totally ignorning the other side of the coin.

Come on Nelson, remove the patch and at least try and blog on whats really going on!
