SINN FEIN president Mary Lou McDonald led calls today for a unified voice to condemn loyalist violence in the north of Ireland as Stormont held an emergency recall session.
“The violence witnessed on the streets in recent days is totally unacceptable,” she said following a morning meeting with Police Service of Northern Ireland Chief Constable Simon Byrne.
“Political leaders need to speak with one voice in condemning what is happening and in calling for planned loyalist protests, particularly at interface areas, to be cancelled immediately.”
