Cold Feet and Bloodlands actor James Nesbitt says he is unnerved and saddened by graffiti targeting him in Portrush
James Nesbitt, who is from a unionist background, addressed the Ireland's Future event in Dublin this month
A message mentioning him was painted on a wall in Portrush, County Londonderry, and featured a crosshair next to it. It comes weeks after the Cold Feet and Bloodlands star addressed a forum in Dublin discussing a united Ireland.: "It really saddens me because I am just really sorry this has been brought to Portrush; brought to my neighbours; brought to the community I love."
"Those painting threatening graffiti such as this should stop," said the MP, in whose East Londonderry constituency the graffiti was daubed."I fundamentally disagree with Mr Nesbitt's position on Northern Ireland's future but he has every right to express his political views in whatever forum he wishes."
