The EMA's should be a fantastic opportunity to show case Belfast and when all eyes are on Belfast, like a mischievous child, we behave cordially until the worlds media have left. So, best behaviour everyone! MLA's included. I dare say some may indulge in a dance and a drink (water or wine) with the stars.
Northern Ireland/Norn Iron/The North/Occupied 6 counties was once described by a journalist as a 'septic womb' and it needs a vigilant Midwife. In a nutshell, this blog aims to shed a comparative narrative from the obvious divide in Northern Ireland. The latent sectarianism in the room is but a dormant elderly relative, ready to shake the fist at any divisive issue that may arise. Many reside in Stormont and the rest walk among us......
