@thetimes: Who are the Orange Order and why were they marching? The police have stopped loyalists from marching through a largely nationalist part of Northern Ireland after a protest prevented the procession taking place on Sunday. Orange Order men in Drumcree, near Portadown, attempted to parade down the Garvaghy Road, a Catholic part of the largely Protestant town, on Sunday night despite fears that it could trigger sectarian violence *FOR NEWS PURPOSES* #news #orangeorder #northernireland #ireland #uknews

If the orange order wanna be English so badly why don’t they move there? Leave the north of Ireland to the Irish

d@rkkn1ght :

So, basically, the Orange Order wants to march through an area that residents don’t want them to march through because a previous march was a disaster. But the Orange Order wants to run that in the residents faces?

The Orange Order is a long‑standing Protestant fraternal organisation whose parades and political activism have repeatedly been at the centre of sectarian conflict in Ireland. From its violent origins in the 1790s to the Drumcree/Garvaghy Road disputes of the 1990s and 2020s, the Order has been associated with recurring trouble, particularly around parade routes through nationalist communities. It’s 2026 the Good Friday Agreement was for change Not This!!!

Excuse an ignorant question (I am swedish and I try to understand) why is it so important for them to march that specific road? I really feel for the people of Garvaghy road who is forced to relive the horrors💔

2026 the American president Donald Trump said a united Ireland would be a good thing that got some people really upset but 2026 the north of Ireland should belong to Ireland not British Parliament in London
