It Must be Marching Season

[Armagh18]

With the OO having left that should be it over for this week anyway?

Confirmed?

[imtommygunn]

Nothing good could ever come of this.

Objective let's drag this place back to the dark ages successful.

What a shit show. The expediency of decisions is ludicrous and has massively ignited things here.

It just highlights once again how rotten some of those unionist politicians actually here and how they have nothing except their bigotry and triumphalism.

It's been mentioned a few places. Not confirmed though.

They've went back to the heat of their hall to discuss what they are for doing.

Don't give them an inch of the road.

Yeah that's what I thought.

They'll be hitting the traybakes.

They dont get heavy handed with Loyalist rioters, whats the term they use for surveillance and get them in their beds the next morning, they can't afford to go in here and start being heavy handed

They can't be lifting people for a peaceful protest either. As Mary Lou literally just said this is madness.

Wouldn't be the first time.

I've criticised the Shinners before but Mary Lou and Michelle handling this as well as can be expected.

Michelle dodging the question about taking down the institutions lol

They spoke well, to a live UK audience.  Good to have it set out in clear terms, rather than the 'butter wouldn't melt' diarrhoea from Carla and co.

As always ML wears the trousers when it comes to the Shinners, will there ever be a day that she lets M O'N go out and do all the talking.

Those flabby jowls don't grow on their own.

[Get warmed up]

They had to do something after Jeff, get anyone questioning them back on side.

Funny enough I thought both spoke...

No you're right Michelle o Neill has never ever done a press conference by herself ever. (/s)

This will escalate across the north unfortunately. Hardline loyalists headed up by Jamie Bryson and Carla Flockhart have been knebbing at this for issue for sometime. Their approach to all of this would enrage the most civil and calm minded nationalist people. The government also up here havent been making much progress and this issue will effectively shut it down. Sad times...

[Dougal Maguire]

It seems to be that it's been driven by the DUP as a means to win back some of the support it lost as a result of the Donaldson case

[Tubberman]

Time to wind the whole NI thing up.

Start serious planning for the new Ireland, start serious campaign for a border poll, start serious dialogue with unionists to involve them in the planning for both.

And of course, the other big winners if DUP get what they want, are Sinn Fein.

I'm not a conspiracy theorist. But every single decision made over the past few days seems to have been made with the knowledge of what the subsequent decision would be. It just feel coordinated to me.
