"NOTHING CAN JUSTIFY ATTACKS ON LITTLE CHILDREN" - ARCHBISHOP EAMES
In a statement today, Church of Ireland Primate Robin Eames said:
"No society has the right to deny young children access to education and it is tragic beyond words to see that the troubles of our community now affect young children of schools in North Belfast.
"The scenes in the Ardoyne area flashed across the world have further damaged the image of this province.
"While I know there are great complexities to this situation nothing can possibly justify attacks on little children of any denomination.
"I commend all the efforts being made to find a solution to the complex questions but for the present all right thinking people must condemn any attack on innocent children."
