When did I say “their reasons were right”. The whole time I’ve been saying that the media is oversimplifying it. And also that the police should have done something before it descended into violence.

And yes, this does happen. And the DUP do talk about these events.

I have several first hand contacts in Ballymena. They said this was one family. One used to work in a shop and had to ban them as they kept stealing stock. I also know another Romanian who deliberately avoided this other group of Romanians, to the point of crossing the road.

I’ve learned to trust first hand witnesses over the media. You’d be surprised over how wrong the media can be at times.
