David Trimble was leader of the UUP and first First Minister of the new Assembly. This Ballybeen graffiti might date back to that period (1998-2005), as the issue of IRA decommissioning led to suspensions of the parliament and Trimble’s own (temporary) stepping-down.

This is the 2010 bonfire in Ballykeel 1, as seen from the edge of Ballykeel 2, with “KAT” [Kill All Taigs] banner and Irish tricolour. It appears to be bigger than “probably the biggest bonfire” in Ballykeel 2.
