  • Lough Neagh could be NI’s biggest tourist attraction and leisure resource, but it’s been turned into something so toxic you literally can’t walk your dogs near it for fear of them being poisoned by algae. It’d dissolve the fucking Terminator it’s so bad. And it’s being turned into a political issue. Instead of just using science to find the cause, and introducing strict environmental guidelines, the farmers union are protesting ‘it wasn’t us’ and the DUP (never the biggest friends of science) have been involved. Lough Neagh isn’t even publicly owned, it’s privately owned by The Earl of Shaftesbury who appears happy enough to let it turn into a toxic dump, but might sell it if he gets enough money. I live about 5 miles away from it, and it could be a magical place to have close by, it’s so fucking frustrating.
