I heard on the radio this morning that unionists want to bring up the parading issue in the assembly.

Nationalists should do the decent thing and walk out before the debate starts.

Good to see that our politicians are getting to the real heart of our problems and trying to make this a better place to live.
This is seriously laughable, that is if it wasnt so serious.

So let me get this right.

Last week a special meeting to deal with Flegs, parading etc was planned but the Unionists walked out before it even started. Now this week they want to talk about it at a meeting of the assembly where normal politics is meant to be discussed.

Oh right!! :-\

More racist, sectarian nonsense from these clowns. Not to mention the illegality and the environmental and health impact of the burning of tyres on bonfires.

You would honestly think that the people who organise these [and associated] events, and I include the OO, loyalist paramilitaries, bands and political unionism in this, were dtermined to ensure that there can never be a normalisation of relations in Norn Ireland.

As someone who wants Ireland reunited I am delighted with their antics.

What would happen in Ardoyne on Saturday if there were no police or no media present?

I'd say either a bloodbath or nothing at all.

A battle of the boyne'esque' re-enactment that Hollywood would struggle to re-create

Have they not tried marching up a few times anyway?? If the police didn't watch them at night etc I think they'd march up anyway.

Hardly going to happen - will be a significant amount spent on policing this debacle (AGAIN!).

Did i see the other day correctly that they have already spent £10m on policing the camp at Twadell Ave?

This comes at the same time as the PSNI have effectively had a £26m cut in their budget.

As well as before the madness which does seem pretty inevitable...

(Ah yes the OO get grants too which extend to over a million...)

on a slightly different note,the irish news have a lot to answer for,every day they pick up on petty things like the ivory coast flag missing from a pub in the shankill road!!once bad enough but every bloody day now they have latched onto the union jack put up on a lamp post inside church grounds in dervock,ok it should not have happened but to go on and on about it only creates more tension.

Aye, let's ignore it and it will go away ... talk about shooting the messenger.
