Statement by TUV Court councillor Jolene Bunting:
“Within the last few hours there have been two attacks on memorials to members of the armed forces.
“A memorial to the three Scottish soldiers murdered in North Belfast has been defaced AGAIN by Republicans and a Cross of Sacrifice in a cemetery off the Falls Road has been damaged.
“It is ironic that in a week when people across Northern Ireland were united in solemnly remembering the out break of the First World War in which Unionists and Nationalists fought together for the freedom of Europe Republicans should choose to display their hatred in such a fashion.”
