Welcoming environment in Northern Ireland

That this House notes the exceptional friendly welcome that awaits visitors to Northern Ireland, from the people who live there; recognises that it is particularly true in Londonderry and the North West, but is deeply concerned at the very real threat posed to that friendly welcoming environment by small unrepresentative groups that have regularly protested in recent years against Royal Navy vessels docking locally, at Police recruitment events, forcing Army recruitment involvement out of a jobs fair, holding regular anti Israel demonstrations and most recently causing Jewish athletes from Israel to be withdrawn from a Triathlon event; and expresses total condemnation of such activities which serve only to cause division and disruption for both local people and visitors alike.
