Ní Chuilín in call to support housing protest


North Belfast Sinn Fein MLA Carál Ní Chuilín urged all residents’ groups and housing activists to come together in support of a protest on Tuesday for the 'Stand Up for North Belfast’ housing campaign.
All residents, community and housing groups and elected representatives have been urged to come out and support their introductory protest at Carrickhill in protest at shabby, second-class housing.
A recent decision by the Planning Service to give the nod to a 226 private apartment development on the Donegall Street car park site was the final straw for North Belfast housing activists who refuse to accept high-rise living as the future for desperate nationalist families.
The public protest at Carrickhill/Donegall Street on Tuesday morning is at 11am and anyone interested is encouraged to attend.
