Echoing what @darraghmackin & Breandán Mac Cionnaith stated today, Twenty-one people died during the parade disputes of 1996 to 1999. That is the human cost no amount of spin can touch, and it is why this chapter has to end here.
JackMurphy retweeted
The Court has ruled against the Orange Order’s challenge to the prohibition of the Drumcree Parade.
No amount of spin will change the legal reality.
It is now time to draw a line on this horrendous chapter.

Applicant case re SoS/CC dismissed. SoS decision was lawful. Highly regrettable it was required. Judgement will be published later today. Justice Scoffield advising all to read and consider it.

It is "inconceivable" that the loyalist killing of a Gaelic football fan during the Troubles could have been planned and carried out without the involvement of the security forces, a court hears.

Outside Musgrave PSNI Station this afternoon alongside Jack Murphy of Phoenix Law.
21 people died in the violence surrounding Drumcree. I’m proud to stand with the Garvaghy Road community, who refuse to go back to those days.

In response to an appeal by the Garvaghy Road residents, we are more than happy to add our voice to this open call on the British Secretary of State Chris Bryant, supporting the right of the Garvaghy Road community to live in peace, free from fear and intimidation.

The glories of Stevie McDonnell’s footballing career were far off in the distance the last time Killeavy made it to an Armagh SFC final way back in 1988.
Fast forward 38 years, and McDonnell won’t forget the next time Killeavy made it to a county decider.
