Either, choices were made, or, the author has come up with a cunning plan.

Who're the most famous people from the county (not country)/city/town you're from? Well, these Down folk may not be as famous to some as Rory McIlroy or Jamie Dorman, but arguably somewhat more significant…

Inez Murphy was born into a Protestant family in Cultra, County Down. Following a period studying in Dublin and London where she met her future husband Vincent McCormack, Inez returned to Northern Ireland in late 1968 becoming involved in the civil rights movement. McCormack began her career as a social worker in the Ballymurphy office of West Belfast Social Services in 1972. McCormack and her colleagues were instructed to transfer to another area and the Ballymurphy office would be closed. Understanding the need in Ballymurphy, they refused to leave and joined the National Union of Public Employees (NUPE) for support. The transfer was eventually squashed, and McCormack began working part-time for the union in 1974.

In 1976 McCormack became the first female full-time official of the National Union of Public Employees (now UNISON) and increased union membership from 800 to 15000 by the time UNISON was formed in 1993 by organising part-time women workers. She went on to become the first female regional secretary of UNISON and served as the first female ICTU president (1999–2001). McCormack founded and led a broad coalition of civil society groups who successfully argued for strong, inclusive equality and human rights provisions to be included in the Good Friday Agreement. Concerned that the majority of communities most affected by the Troubles continued to be amongst the most socially deprived areas of Northern Ireland, McCormack led campaigns to assert the rights of the most socially excluded and enable them to challenge the problems they experienced. Inez established Participation and Practice of Rights (PPR), a human rights organisation based in Belfast to continue this work. Inez McCormack passed away from cancer on 21st January 2013 at the age of 69, in Foyle hospice.

Usual suspects in NI media describing this as standing ‘near’ the protestors, rather than ‘with’. Hmmm. The footage appears to show her acting and reacting in lockstep with the protestors; viewers can make up their own minds.
