Sinn Féin MLA addresses housing rally


North Belfast housing campaigners took to the streets on Sunday in a bid to rally groups to fight together for better housing with North Belfast Sinn Féin MLA, Carál Ní Chuilín one of the speakers.
Invited to the North Belfast Civil Rights Association-organised rally, Carál said it was a good turnout and a great atmosphere.
“We basically stood up and called for everyone, regardless of background, to come together and fight for equality,” said Carál.
“This is not some superior right, this is about the basic human right to housing and we need to work as one on this.
“The money is there, the land is there, so all we need is for the housing minister to do what she is in place to do and start providing housing.”
The rally took speakers and supporters from Carrickhill, across Millfield and over to Custom House Square via the City Hall were key rally calls were made.
