Executive Statement on Racist and Sectarian Attacks
Date published:
As an Executive, we stand united in our condemnation of all forms of racism, sectarianism and hostility towards individuals of different backgrounds.
All acts of violence and intimidation are abhorrent and have no place in our society. We stand in solidarity with victims and their families.
Every person, regardless of race, religion, or background, is entitled to feel safe and free from threat or intimidation.
We maintain a zero-tolerance approach for all forms of hate and intimidation and call for calm across all communities. All acts of intimidation must stop immediately.
The Executive will continue to work in partnership with the PSNI, civic leaders, community organisations, and statutory bodies to ensure that our streets, neighbourhoods, and communities reflect the values of equality and respect.
Let us move forward together, united against hatred and division, and committed to building a peaceful, inclusive, and shared future for all.
