Residents’ groups from the Bogside, Lower Ormeau, Ardoyne, Springfield Road, Short Strand and elsewhere have warned that local parade agreements “could unravel” if the Orange Order keeps insisting on the Garvaghy Road, or seeks the same in other nationalist areas.
Linda O’Neill of the Garvaghy Road Residents Coalition said the Order and the Parades Commission have made this “bigger than the Garvaghy Road” and that “this is about all of us.”
Read that for what it is. A road that has already been blocked is being used to lean on every settled route. The message is clear: drop Garvaghy, or the deals that limit other parades may not hold.

The right to parade a traditional route is not a favour handed out by the loudest protest. If you value that tradition, and the faith and identity it carries, do not leave it to a few dozen men at Drumcree.

Show that a warning aimed at one road will not empty the rest.
No Surrender! 🇬🇧
