‘I walked among their old haunts. the home ground where they bled; And in the dirt lay justice like an acorn in the winter. Till its oak would sprout in Derry where the thirteen men lay dead’ -Heaney
In 1972 Seamus Heaney drove from Belfast to Derry on the day of the funerals of those murdered on Bloody Sunday. The late Luke Kelly of the Dubliners later asked Heaney to write him a song about his feelings on the journey. Heaney penned "The Road to Derry" #BloodySunday51🏴

Great to have Stuart back - especially with the first topic on football - we don't need any more uninformed rubbish from the likes of Ian Duncan Smith, Keir Starmer or Lisa Nandy! @Detroit67Book @EamonnONeill

The valley wept where children lay, While distant lords turned cold away. Westminster’s halls heard muffled cries Too far, too Welsh, in their proud eyes. But grief runs deeper than the mine, And truth still haunts that fatal line.
