why wouldn't the family want a quiet funeral? Who pushed them into this? This was quite close to a state funeral

Did any know who she was?

I'd never heard of her until she was plastered all over the BBC

Jamal Khashoggi brutally murdered by the Saudis - allegedly. A journo who was the news for a long while across every known news media; i wonder what he'd have thought, & said about the 37 bloodthirsty executions yesterday in Saudi, one of which was a crucifixion? Just to add, one of the victims yesterday was another journo

Apparently she was Sky news young journalist of the year for the whole UK but I had not heard of her either. As for why the big funeral, it was to demonstrate that the IRA are still a big threat.

Is it only journalists you have heard of that should be on mainstream tv if they have the misfortune  to be murdered by terrorists SontaranStratagem.

I didn't know about the 37 executions but not surprised bearing in mind that the MSM can't afford to upset the Saudi's Whoops

Saoradh marched in Glasgow today.
Surprised they were allowed given their association with the group that killed the young journalist.

there is definitely something brewing. As we now know the reason for all the dignitary suckholing; expect the unexpected

I was surprised as well given that it wasn't a targeted killing of a journalist but an indiscriminate shooting that killed a lass who happened to be a journalist.
I think though that something is brewing and the large turnout of dignitaries was a show of strength against a return to all out violence.

Good on the local residents. Takes courage to do that.

Seen a couple of pics on twitter in respect of the march.
Each featured a banner. One read 'Unfinished Revolution - Unfinished Business' and the other 'We haven't gone away you know'.
Both worrying messages. I doubt though that apart from a few 1diots they'll get much support.
