Repulsive Provo lyrics again turn West Belfast Festival into a Terror Fest

Statement by TUV leader Jim Allister:-

“Once more the West Belfast Festival degenerated into a Terror Fest with its ‘Up the Ra’ finale.

“The fact that shamefully the Charity Commission failed to act against such glorification of terror under the auspices of an organisation it continues to accept as a bona fide charity, guaranteed this deliberate insult to IRA victims.

“When the Charity Commission by its inaction sanctions such, rest assured there will be plenty of IRA acolytes ready to pay homage to the murdering Provos as a new generation is indoctrinated into the bloodthirsty cult of worshipping at the shrine of IRA terror.

“The fact that this festival continues to be lavishly funded from the public purse adds to the hurt and insult endured by the victims of terrorism.”
