Cochrane outraged at Belfast racist attack

Alliance East Belfast MLA, Judith Cochrane, has condemned a racially motivated attack on three men which took place on the Queen’s Bridge in Belfast at 3am on Sunday.

Judith Cochrane MLA said: “I am outraged this attack has taken place. There can be no place for racism in our society.

“Those responsible for this attack have no regard for the well-being of other people, so I would encourage those with information about this attack to contact the Police.

“This latest attack has shown the importance of having a properly funded racial equality strategy. While I welcome the recent publication of a consultation, the First and deputy First Ministers must ensure the final document is adequately resourced.”
