David Adams: Culture wars are designed to keep us divided (opens the original)
Read excerpt
I SPENT a few days last week at the DâArcy McGee Summer School in Carlingford. I had intended to write about the beauty of the town, its wonderfully welcoming people, and how much I enjoyed and learned at this magnificent summer school. But as ever, issues closer to home have raised their ugly heads. My first thought on hearing about the Garvaghy Road court decision was: âWell, thatâs one way to deflect public attention from your many, and seemingly mounting, problems. Resurrect the Drumcr

The highest levels of child poverty in Northern Ireland, at 32.9%, are in the Belfast West electoral constituency â Belfast North sits not far behind on around 31%. Nor is there much to boast about anywhere else. In 16 of our 18 constituencies and 10 of our 11 council areas, at least 20% of children are living i
