NI paper review: Liam Neeson, Theresa May and St Patrick.


Liam Neeson, Theresa May and St Patrick all feature on the front of Tuesday's papers.

"Star Neeson's race hate confession" is the headline on the front of the Daily Mirror.

It follows comments by the actor that he walked the streets with a weapon, hoping to kill a black man as revenge after someone close to him was raped.

"It was horrible, when I think back. It's awful, But I did learn a lesson from it," Neeson said.

The Mirror quotes a number of public figures who have criticised the Ballymena man's comments, which were made during an interview to promote his new film.

While both the Belfast Telegraph and News Letter have pictures of Neeson on their front pages, both lead with Theresa May's visit to Belfast, although they take different angles on it.
