Lo disgusted at threat against anti-racism campaigner

South Belfast Alliance MLA Anna Lo has condemned a firebomb threat against anti-racism campaigner Paddy Meehan and said to threaten someone who was trying to assist Romanian families is despicable.

Anna Lo MLA said: “I am appalled that someone who was trying to assist Romanian families has been issued with a threat. This is nothing short of despicable.

“The thugs whose attacks led the families to flee their homes have already shown how low they are prepared to stoop. The news of this threat further highlights the sickening lengths this small minority will go to create fear and push their agenda of hate.

“The positive work of Belfast people to help the families who fled their homes has shown that we can overturn the negative message that a few thoughtless thugs sent out.”
