Democratic representatives of Derry appalled by events in the Bogside: Reilly
Colr. Reilly who requested Monday's special meeting of Derry City & Strabane District Council in response to sustained criminal behaviour and sectarian attacks in the area, said: "The overwhelming majority of people right across this city and district are appalled at the events unfolding in the Bogside area over recent days and nights.
"These actions do not represent the wishes of the people living in that part of our city and the Council must come together to say clearly 'Not in my name'. I have asked the Mayor to convene a special council meeting as soon as possible so that we can discuss the issue and identify solutions."
