White line picket in support of families


Hundreds of people took to the streets of Belfast on Monday to show their solidarity with the families of the Bloody Sunday victims.
North Belfast MLA Gerry Kelly said the report was an important milestone in Ireland's history.
“British Crown Forces have been directly responsible for the killing of almost 370 Irish citizens during the conflict including the 14 innocent civilians on Bloody Sunday," he said.

“On Monday the community stood shoulder to shoulder with the relatives of those victims. The people of Derry have called on the British government to set the truth free, and of course this resonates with the people of the New Lodge and the victims of the New Lodge Six massacre that seen six innocent lives lost in 1973 as a result of the actions of British soldiers."
