After being arrested in relation to arson attacks on 5G masts across west Belfast, he told a newspaper last month there is 'absolutely no evidence' to connect him with the fires.

Posting on Facebook about yesterday's protest, Mallon said: 'Happy to support pocket rocket Lynsey Brown speaking up at Chimney Corner, where the government thinks it's OK to place illegal immigrants in a hotel facing a nursery as our homeless are left living on the streets in tents.'
