🚨 SEAN BROWN PUBLIC INQUIRY 🚨 Belfast High Court has “no hesitation” in finding that after 27 years the UK government has “manifestly failed” to investigate the murder of Sean Brown, that the UK is in breach of article 2 ECHR and directs the SoS to convene a Public Inquiry.

Solidarity to the Brown family & the @BellaghyGAC @Doiregaa @UlsterGAA community for their unconditional support for a public inquiry for Sean RIP. Watching this unmissable message travel around the streets of London is a powerful reminder that truth & justice really do matter!🙏

Sean Brown, father of six and GAA official, was murdered in 1997. MI5 and the MoD are still refusing to release the files. 28 years on - still no public inquiry. The billboard has been circling key London sites. Day four of five - filmed earlier at Downing Street. @loughran_clare

NEWS/NUACHT: @CnaG have confirmed that they have applied to judicially review the NI Executive's ongoing failure to introduce an Irish language strategy - the third JR in eight years! Supported by @PILSni's Litigation Fund and backed by @CAJNi. pilsni.org/services-provi…

"We are incredibly disappointed to have been left in no position but to seek further remedy from the courts for a 3rd time. That is simply unacceptable.” "We have seen nothing to convince us that this is in any way a priority for the Minister in charge of its development”.

Conrwdh na Gaeilge: Irish language strategy JR We confirm that we have lodged proceedings for what will be a third judicial review of the failure by the Executive and the Minister to bring forward and implement concrete proposals for implementation of an Irish language strategy

Monday's bombing by Israeli forces of Al-Baqa cafe is just the latest targeting of journalists by Israeli forces. Last year was the deadliest year for journalists ever recorded, and 70% were Palestinians killed by Israeli forces.

Twenty-eight years on from his killing, it is shameful that Sean Brown’s family are still being denied the truth. Today, Sinn Féin MPs stood with his family outside Westminster to support their campaign for a public inquiry — the only mechanism to deliver justice. It is time…

Sean Brown was murdered 28 years ago. His family, led by his 87 year old widow Bridie, are still fighting for truth and justice. Proud to offer my full support while they were at Westminster this week. The British Government needs to stop the delay & call the public inquiry.

This week we bring our continued campaign for truth and justice to London to raise awareness of the truly awful way the state is continuing to hide the horrific details behind our father’s murder. Keep an eye this week for the Advan travelling through London city centre.
