Hazzard Condemns Sign At South Down School

Hazzard slams ‘intimidatory’ sign posted outside a local school

Chris Hazzard MP has condemned a sign put up outside a school as ‘racist and intimidatory’.

Sinn Féin MP Chris Hazzard has slammed those responsible for placing a ‘racist and intimidatory’ sign outside a school in near Castlewellan.

The South Down MP said: “It’s totally disgraceful that a sign attacking children learning the Irish language has been placed outside a local primary school.

“There is no place in our society for racist threats and this sign is a clear attempt to intimidate school children.

“It is particularly sinister and worrying that this sign has named a local school. Those responsible should stop now.

“I would urge anyone with information on this sign to bring it forward to the police.”
