Don't let the suits & bowler hats fool you. The #OrangeOrder is a hate group, just as much as any thugs in black balaclavas.
The #Drumcree dispute is not about the hate group's freedom to march. The Orange Order has uncontested routes between #Portadown & #Drumcree.
This is about the hate group's demand to march on the Garvaghy Road, past the homes of the people they hate, and who they terrorised in the 1990s.
It is not culture & tradition.This is intimidation by a #HateGroup.

From #Ireland to #Palestine, occupation is a crime.
For the first time in 28 years, after the Belfast peace agreement was signed, the fascist #orangeOrder (#KKK) is given state sanction to march down the Irish nationalist Garvaghy Road.
28 years ago, 3 children, Jason, Mark and Richard Quinn were murdered by the UVF, amid extreme sectarian violence and tension during the Drumcree standoff.

This was a direct result of the orange order demanding to illegally march through an indigenous Irish community that did not consent to such a supremacist display of hate.
Today, despite the occupation forces describing our protest as illegal, we have prevented the orange order from marching.

The #ParadesCommission's decision on Friday to allow the #OrangeOrder to march on the Garvaghy Road in #Drumcree has bounced all weekend between High Court judges. It's still bouncing. https://www.itv.com/news/utv/2026-09-26/drumcree-parade-decision-being-challenged-at-high-court
Orangemen try to whitewash the order as a community tradition. In reality, it has always been an #antiCatholic #hateGroup dedicated to #Protestant supremacy. It was a key part of the 1921–72 unionist regime in #Stormont.
