Last week reminded us all what is at stake when we allow the dehumanisation of our fellow citizens. On Tuesday, when the news and visual imagery of a vicious assault emerged, the immediate and quite unique response felt disproportionate to the one-on-one attack.

It was however an indication of the seriousness with which the Executive and the PSNI, viewed the inevitably violent response.

I have always wanted to follow a career in the media

FROM a young age I always said I had a creative mindset. I always had a passion for talking, acting, debating and exploring other people's interests and how they view topics. This only became stronger as I grew up. I have always kept an open mind when it comes to debating topics as I am aware everyone has different views and I have always tried to view multiple sides of a story, which initially sparked the idea of potentially becoming a journalist. I personally always loved to listen to people's stories and to learn about their views as everyone is their own person and has their own story to tell which I find fascinating.
