Does anyone seriously believe that roads in interface areas become more open for Protestants as a result of forcing Orange Parades down them?
Surely the Orange Order leadership can see that they are endangering the safety of Protestants living in these areas. I used to live in Ballynafeigh and it was usually safe to walk across the bridge to pubs in Botanic Ave with my friends, but not after an Orange Parade.
Can we please take a fresh look at this tradition of parading.
Tradition. Just because you've always done it that way doesn't mean it's not incredibly stupid.
