Local SDLP representative Gerard McDonald, has condemned the "articles of hate" saying they have no place in West Belfast or the island of Ireland and that the local community.

He said: "The SDLP condemn such articles of hate and reaffirm they have no place in west Belfast or throughout the island of Ireland. The Dunmurry and wider west Belfast community have a strong history of supporting newcomer families to this part of the city where many of the same people are staffing the Royal Victoria Hospital or teaching our children.

"The pressures facing working class communities throughout the north is due consistent underfunding by the British government and a NI Executive that's only consistency over the past decade has been inaction, none of the pressures facing our communities can be laid at the door of any migrant community."
