The explosion happened in Londonderry. close to where this bank was bombed a year ago

Another bomb exploded outside the British City of Culture offices in Derry city last night, an hour after a warning had been given but the British paramilitary disposal police, did not once again bother to turn up until after the explosion..

The bomb went went off at 11pm and if the British paramilitary police are to be believed there were no reports of injuries, no thanks to them. They have over a number of years now been more than slow to clear the vicinity of bombs, which are always forewarned by the IRA usually up to an hour beforehand. Many claim the British are trying to create a catastrophe, to justify a huge increase in their budget from British taxpayers to finance another 40 years of war in British Occupied Ireland and as justicifaction for even more repression, torture and brutality in British Occupid Ireland.

It is the second time now the British headquarters of "culture' was targeted this year, as the British have attempted a propaganda coup, by claiming it to be a British City of Culture. This follows the British sticking the name of the city of London, in front of Derry and trying to re-name the Irish city Londonderry instead of its original Irish name of Derry, for further propaganda purposes.

There was condemnation of the bomb from the usual Unionist and collaborator sources, although as of yet the Presidential candidate hasn't said much, fearing a substantial loss of votes. McGuinness which means son of Guinness when translated into English, was prevented from drinking by his family, in an effort to avoid the failings of his unknown father.

A 200lbs bomb was delivered by taxi to the British police headquarters a few months ago, which was cleared a lot more rapidly than bombs elsewhere in Occupied Ireland. This month two British paramilitary police were badly injured in another car bomb attack beside Ulster Bank, when they again lazily arrived late. The bomb lifted them straight up in the air and deposited them rather abruptly in the gutter of their claimed city of British culture. Bombs are usually censored by the British in the media to create the illusion of normality with their occupation in Ireland.

The re-naming of the City of Derry by the British and their attempt at it's designation as a British City of Culture, has caused considerable resentment among its Irish citizens and has made the City unsafe for tourists, which have been cancelling their visits to the city because of the British presence and propaganda exercises of provocation. There has however been a niche tourist market created in Derry for British headbangers and heavy rock enthusiasts, curious about the birthplace of Ireland's next President the son of Guinness who already works for the Queen of England.
