The 'Justice minister' calls for the Lawful Orange Order to walk away no mention of a mob and convicted terrorists illegally blocking a road.
You couldn't make it up.@naomi_long.
⚠️💥NEW DRUMCREE: Naomi Long - Policing operation ‘costing millions. Maybe it’s time for the Orange Order to walk away. They’ve got their win.’
🎥🎤Justice Minister and @allianceparty leader @naomi_long says she is very concerned about how much the policing operation at Drumcree, along with court time, is costing.
She told Chief Reporter @jamesgould23 that 'we simply don’t have that money' and that it is being taken away “from other services”.
She made clear that she wants to see a mediated solution, with people able to get back to their normal lives.

The ‘Appellant’ in tomorrow’s proceedings. Having defied the court and the law, making clear everyone should illegally amass and not “let the f**kers down” (35 peaceful mostly elderly Orangemen), he now goes back to the Court of Appeal to try the law he has defied again.
It’s a novel argument, I’ll give them that. Going back to the courts he has sworn to defy, and asking them to reward his unlawful behaviour.
Why is IRA man Martin Duckser Lynch, who hails from West Belfast, directing the protesters at Garvaghy? What does First Minister Michelle O'Neill think of this? This is a question that the media should be asking. They won't. He comes in here after Brendan Mac Cionnaith says that they're not going to let "those fuckers down."
Republicans may think they are victorious.But winning the right to walk the Garvagh Rd was about much more than that.
It's shattered the veil of deception that the PUL have an equal place in their 'New Ireland'.And the deception that the IRA went away.
Glorifying the good Auld Provo's is as natural as breathing air to these people,a terrorist organisation responsible for around 1800 deaths during the Troubles.
They will never be happy until there's no PUL community left.A United Ireland must be resisted at all costs.
The sectarianism and hatred on display on the Garvagh Road is just the tip of the New Ireland iceberg.
Republicans claim we will run out of steam that its already happening.Go support Portadown district.
Here we stand, we can do no other!

The Ireland that Republicans dream of, and were willing to murder for, no longer exists and is never coming back.
The Republic of Ireland:
- has a population of which 23% are not born in Ireland (their offspring would push this number much higher)
- is not a sovereign state and must defer to unelected bureaucrats in Brussels on issues of immigration, tax, farming, fishing, trade and climate change. All of these EU policies make life more expensive for the average Irish citizen
- has no common culture and has abandoned its cultural roots in the Catholic Church.
- only 1.5% of the population speak the Irish language on a daily basis
- cannot house its own people, with 17,000 Irish citizens currently homeless and an estimated 65k Irish citizens being driven abroad every year by high cost of living
Republican dreams of an independent, predominantly Gaelic, united ireland are now nothing but pure fantasy due the the social and demographic changes cheered on by the politicians currently lining the Garvaghy Road.

This is clear evidence that the Garvaghy protest is orchestrated, and directed from outside. If there are any actual residents there, they're being told what to do. That is not organic opposition to an orange parade. It is a republican who is an officer holder in Sinn Féin directing people in opposition to a court ruling.

16th Aug 1917,the 3 Infantry Brigades of the 36th Ulster Division enter the 3rd Battle of Ypres along with the 16th Irish Div for which they were awarded the Battle Honour 'Langemarck' & not Passchendaele which is mistakenly put on so many standards and memorials in their honour
