Newry protest

Activists from Newry housing estates staged a silent protest on Saturday, starting at Corry Square RUC station, at the murders of Catholics and the lack of effort by the RUC in dealing with the loyalist murder gangs.

Sinn Fein Councillor Brendan Curran said, ``The time has come to explode the myth that the killing of Catholics is seen as some sort of tit for tat or retaliation. The killings of Catholics is part of the reactionary opposition by Unionists to change or the potential for change. These killings have continued relentlessly since the formation of this corrupt Unionist-dominated state, aided and abetted by the RUC. It is time for the so-called silent Unionist majority to say to these people, enough is enough.''
