DUP MLA says Sinn Féin Irish-language signs in North Belfast 'intimidatory' to unionists

A DUP MLA has hit out at Sinn Féin-banded Irish-language signs advising drivers to slow down, saying they are "intimidatory" to unionists.

Brian Kingston took issue with the signs - which include a Sinn Féin logo, the word "slow" and the Irish translation "go mall" - being placed in a "mixed" residential area of North Belfast.

He claimed the red diamond-shaped signs are "illegal and political" and has contacted roads officials in Stormont's Department for Infrastructure as a "matter of urgency".
