I rarely, if ever, respond to what this person says but this is a total disgrace. In the context of a threat of violence from loyalist paramilitaries, it’s further incitement - the @ChiefConPSNI @PoliceServiceNI must take urgent action

For information. Colin Harvey is a close associate of a number of convicted IRA terrorists. Colin Harvey threatened to “remove” any land border. Colin Harvey has never condemned the Irish Government’s use of the threat of IRA bombs. Colin Harvey is a republican activist.
