To all our supporters,

Thank you! Because of you, we are rapidly approaching 3,000 signatures.

In just a short time, this campaign has grown from a single voice of frustration into a massive, undeniable message from the community: sectarian language has no place on our public airwaves, and it will no longer go unchallenged.

Every signature represents someone who is exhausted by the politics of division and expects better from our elected representatives and our broadcasters.

Behind the scenes, we are making sure your voices are heard:

 Formal complaints are actively lodged with Ofcom and BBC Complaints.

 A formal referral has been sent to the Parliamentary Commissioner for Standards.

 We have reached out to local media outlets and elected representatives across Northern Ireland to demand public accountability.

But we cannot stop now. Here is how you can help us cross the 3,000 mark and beyond today:

1. Share on WhatsApp: Send the petition link to just 3 friends or family members, or drop it into your local community group chats. (This is the fastest way petitions grow!)

2. Post on Social Media: Share the link on your Facebook, X (Twitter), or Instagram.

3. Tag the Broadcasters: If you are on X (Twitter), tag @BBCNewsNI and demand they address the unchallenged remarks.

Thank you for standing up, taking action, and refusing to accept the normalization of sectarian rhetoric. Let’s keep the momentum going!
