Good thing that this couldn’t have been predicted almost a year ago <runs bitter victory lap> and the government didn’t just blithely carry on doing the same thing. www.prospectmagazine.co.uk/politics/718...

Some chat about Rosemary Nelson on the other site. She was in my Dad's year at the IPLS. They're both in this picture here in the High Court (my Dad is the grumpy one who looks like he's in Good fellas)

Sinn Fein should have called for the resignation of the entire parades commission and listened to the people telling them that the high court case would likely result in a parade being allowed. There was also a mess over mediation.

So many former flashpoints in Northern Ireland are now peaceful. Residents and the Order have, to their credit, sat down and worked something out. Would have been great if Garvaghy was the same but unfortunately a section of unionism wanted this fight.

Honestly galling. We all saw them talking about legitimate concerns when they were burning kids out of their homes. They're talking about mob rule as well. Like when Belfast got shut down by paramilitaries???

On Twitter, unionist politicians are calling for the rule of law to be upheld. As Michelle O'Neill is standing with the residents blocking the road they are also questioning whether she's broken MLA standards of conduct.

So, overnight, the Orange Order's appeal was allowed. The parade is due to commence imminently. Blesk is not the word.

Says that court has heard reasons to believe a full hearing on the Parades Commission decision was best and that tomorrow's march date did not have the significance of the original July date sought by Loyal Orange Order. Therefore it would not "prejudice" any party to delay the hearing.

Lawyer for Garavaghy Road Residents Coalition says no agreement has been reached with Loyalist Orange Order over march tomorrow - as barrister in court only represents one man. Lawyer urging high court judge to make an order for interim relief.

Belfast: High court judge urges parties to reach agreement over Garvaghy Road parade "for the sake of everyone in NI" . "Be big enough to step back from the abyss" she says and allow later Parades Commission decision hearing when all facts known. She also praises LOL for "engaging assiduously"

The Assembly has a track record of passing legislation that isn't thought through but ultimately opposition to this bill is grounded on hatred of trans people and the belief that people should be allowed to stop people becoming trans

Three young boys being burnt to death should have shamed the orange order from wanting to march down there again. That’s what is ringing in my ears. It’s a struggle for the exertion of supremacy - no matter the cost.

Devastating. I’m originally from a soft unionist background in now living in Portadown and run a business based on the G Road. So many good and decent people hung out to dry with this decision. The parade is sectarian triumphalism and should not happen. Unchristian act from so called Christians.
