Last month, we reported David Ervine’s concerns of the gulf between the Protestant middle classes and the working class:
“…the Catholic middle class put back into the communities they came from, whilst the protestant middle classes have concentrated on draining the bucket dry.”
However, Mairtin O’Muillieor looks at his own Catholic community and similar concerns are beginning to arise:
“The gap between our college-going achievers and fair play to them and the forgotten working class of areas like West and North Belfast is widening.”
A slightly inhuman presence that bans bad comments and works late at night to remove the wrinkles in Slugger’s technical carpet. You will need to know about the comments policy to stay off the fightin’ side of me and there is a bit of background about me here. You can email me using this spam-proof link if you really need to, and Slugger is @sluggerotoole on Twitter. But above all, remember, Play the ball and not the man.
