Local school faces backlash over a ‘Darkest Day’ display on a noticeboard.
An "abhorrent disregard for the wider school community"
That's how an open letter from former pupils of a County Antrim school describes the appearance of a so-called "Darkest Day" display on a school noticeboard.
A blacked out noticeboard with the hashtag #DarkestDay iappeared on the Instagram account of the Christian Union at Dalriada School.
This followed the decriminalisation of abortion and legalisation of same sex marriage in Northern Ireland earlier this week.
