This was clearly racism. Alphonsine Leuga requested an ambulance, gave her symptoms and her address but because she didn't answer if she needed an interpreter the call handler recorded it as an abandoned call.

As Loyalists many of us are descended from people who fled oppression, poverty and religious intolerance. It is a Loyalist action to support those in the same situation today. Find out how you can help refugees and people seeking asylum here buff.ly/Y8iyviV

100% of Loyalist women surveyed by Her Loyal Voice had experienced some form of abuse, harassment, or discrimination for identifying as loyalist. This included sexist, misogynist, and sectarian comments. buff.ly/Z0sDLJU 🧵 1/2

Male violence against women and girls is a misogyny problem, not an issue caused by immigration. Why then has the sexual assault in #Ballymena resulted in a pogrom?
