Ben Lowry - a sunny Sunday

It has been a mostly sunny spring Sunday morning in Belfast. It's hard to think that it was snowy in Fermanagh on Friday, but amidst such cold spells it is good that electricity and gas prices are down and oil prices have dipped again too.

 

We had interesting essays this week from Alf McCreary on how religious faith is still strong in Northern Ireland, and Jackie McGregor who has written a new column for us, and talks here about emotion on leaving her late parents' home.

 

And Roamer is back after a break of three months after a right digital fracture!

 

In politics and justice, we are appalled that ex security forces have lived in fear of prosecution from the Kenova probe after their huge success in penetrating the IRA murder machine.

 

Meanwhile, I do hope Belfast city council bans noise pollution, not (in effect) preachers.

 

Stephen Farry MP has called for clear figures on costs for Casement stadium. He was speaking at the Alliance Party conference where Naomi Long called for Stormont reform.

 

Lots of other sport. Ballymena Academy's captain backs his team in the rugby schools' cup after a career ending injury while the BBC presenter Mark Simpson has seen divided loyalties in his family between academy, for which his dad played, and Sullivan, for which Mark did.

 

Linfield are angry at what they say is a harsh penalty for after fan misconduct while Bushmills is hoping to get a boost from hosting a football competition.

 

All the best until my next message,

Ben
