Aisling McNamara @aisling7468.bsky.social · 28/09/2026Why do the BBC keep referring to the Orange Order as "a protestant organisation" as though they're the protestant equivalent of The Legion of Mary? If The Salvation Army wanted to walk down the Garvaghy Road it wouldn't be a problem. The Orange Order is a sectarian organisation, that's the problem. 081
