Oh dear... not a a good start to the week for ex-BNP man Jim (Dodgy) Dowson's so-called Protestant Coalition. For the first time his bunch of shit-stirring, homophobic, bigoted political dinosaurs have been called to account by another Unionist Party - surprisingly it was not Basil McCrea's NI21; unsurprisingly nor was it the DUP or TUV.
Yesterday this abhorrent shower, fronted by local comedian Wee Willie Frazer and uber-Prod Sam McCrory posted a vile homophobic rant on their Facebook page criticising a group of PUP activists who had the temerity to attend the Newry Pride event at the weekend.

This particular rant did not go un-noticed by one of the group who attended the event and promptly took to Twitter to express her feelings.

The Protestant Coalition were quickly 'persuaded' to remove their original post by persons unknown but not before we were able to display it on our Facebook Page.
Not to be outdone the PC quickly replaced their original post and fired off another rant at the so-called loony lefties and liberals who criticised them.

| Protestant Coalition - Rant 2 |
Izzy was having none of it and actually took to Facebook to confront the author of this piece, someone she believed to be none other than the financial backer of the Protestant Coalition and erstwhile Leader (accoding to the Electoral Commission) - none other than Mr. Jim Dowson himself - a man banned from social media under the terms of his bail conditions.
The un-named Protestant Coalition 'author' was quick to inform anyone who would listen what a fabulous guy Jim Dowson is, kindly pointing out that 'he' helps close friends suffering from HIV "some via drug use some via their sexuality".

We were beginning to think the whole saga was over until the Protestant Coalition then decided it was time for another rant this time attacking 'Cultural Marxism' with the usual stolen meme.
All of this had the distinct whiff of Dowson about it, something Izzy was quick to spot:
Throughout this entire conversation the un-named author writing on behalf of the Protestant Coalition maintains that Mr. Dowson was at Laganside Courts today.
So we checked the court lists for today, Tuesday 3rd September 2013.
Mr. Dowson was not up in court today.
The mystery deepens...
Izzy is my new hero. What an intelligent, cohesive load of words as opposed to the standard PC wordboke.
ReplyDeleteJim Dowson had no problems standing with a nationalist crowd at an anti abortion protest: http://www.theguardian.com/uk/2012/oct/18/abortion-protest-belfast-clinic-opening
ReplyDelete...so it clearly is just gays he has a problem with.
Mind you, his Life League had close connection (50k's worth, in fact) with Youth Defence: http://lancasteruaf.blogspot.nl/2009/11/jim-dowson-how-militant-anti.html
who have their own connections with republicanism: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Justin_Barrett

as well as well documented links to neo-Nazi groups.
Since Dowson is a documented fascist that's not really surprising but what IS bizarre is that they would dare to attack anyone for attending a pride parade that may or may not be attended by a majority nationalist crowd (no one took a census) but that Dowson hanging around a crowd organised by a crowd of Irish ultra-nationalists and Catholics all saying the rosary is A-ok. What's that saying, "offended by everything, ashamed of nothing"?
To be fair this statement is accurate only of a specific type of Protestant, e.g. Dowson, Bryson, Poots etc...
ReplyDeleteHe protests against Izzy, saying if they challenge anything the liberals say, they get labelled, like 'racist' or 'homophobe'.
ReplyDeleteThen he goes and starts labeling people he doesn't agree with, notably 'Marxist'
The PC are blind to all hypocrisy.
Incidentally, that quote about nations is generally attributed to Kaiser Wilhelm II. You know, the fella whose barbaric armies slaughtered our brave lads at the Somme.
ReplyDeleteA cogently written series of responses by Izzy Giles; could she be a rare candidate in NI politics?
ReplyDeleteIronically, her views, despite mirroring those of the late David Ervine, seem to fall more in line with the Alliance Party and the Green Party rather than the modern incarnation of the PUP.
