Christopher Jackson says Sinn Féin will not be intimidated by ‘cowardly attack’ on Waterside office
Christopher Jackson has said Sinn Féin will not be intimidated by what he described as a ‘cowardly attack’ on the party’s Waterside office.
Windows at the office were smashed overnight on Tuesday.
“This cowardly attack will do absolutely nothing to deter Sinn Féin from representing the community and continuing to confront the thuggish actions of a small minority who have been tormenting residents over recent days.
“These people have nothing to offer but sectarianism, bigotry and criminality. They should stop exploiting our young people and get of the backs of the community,” said the Waterside councillor.
Colr. Jackson stated that it came ‘as little surprise to us that when Sinn Féin and many other progressive voices across Ireland are standing shoulder to shoulder with the people of Garvaghy Road, their contribution is to sneak out in the middle of the night to attack a local constituency office which provides support and services to the local community’.
