Will big Gav pull Stormont down

I dont think he has the Henrys

[tonto1888]

Superb

What's going to happen now though.

Absolute state of this whole debacle. What were they thinking trying to let this parade through.

A victory for common sense.

[Mourne Red]

Did Gav lose the head on Nolan earlier?

[Orior]

Was it worth it for Unionism?

Was it even discussed on GB News?

[Tony Baloney]

Potential downside is that Bryson et al use this to turn up the heat on every other parade.

[jb77]

Pretty damning as I read it

It would be strange to pull Stormont down because a parade that was barred for 28 years is barred again. But the whole thing has been a farce, I'd lime to know if there was any thinking behind reviving this.

[Armamike]

Don't know if there's the appetite among unionist voters anymore for parade disputes and standoffs.

I think if it had been a warm July it might been a different ball game. Still need find out the cop who thought this was a good idea.

How many are there that are contentious really though? What is it - 95% or something get through? Not that you would think it listening to and reading the shite of this past week mind you - is this what a new Ireland would look like they say.

As someone else here said I think this has one big stunt. I also think there will be ramifications of it yet.

From talking to ones on the other side of the fence I dont think he carries anywhere near as much weight as we think he does. Alot are very against what they tried to  do the last few weeks in Portadown.

[imtommygunn]

It's hard to gauge because the insight you get tends to be foaming at the mouth unionist politicians or raving lunatics on social media but it's hard to fathom how a right thinking person would see this as anything other than a massive shit stirring exercise to rattle drums.

[gallsman]

Robinson and Lockhart clearly a million miles apart on this.
