Belfast: Hospital’s pro-Palestinian graffiti ‘difficult’ to get removed

Pro-Palestinian graffiti has remained on a wall at the Royal Victoria Hospital (RVH) because several contractors were too fearful to remove it, the head of the Belfast Health Trust has said.

The Democratic Unionist Party (DUP) has raised the issue of the slogans on the Falls Road side of the RVH with the NI Public Services Ombudsman.

Work to remove the graffiti is to start, however the trust said it had been a struggle to find someone to do it because several contractors had turned down the work.

The DUP’s Diane Dodds questioned Belfast Trust Chief Executive Maureen Edwards about the graffiti during a Stormont committee on Thursday, describing it as “antisemitic”.
