Twelfth of July parades have been cancelled across Northern Ireland due to the coronavirus outbreak.
The Orange Lodge of Ireland has confirmed the traditional parades will not go ahead this summer.
Orange Lodge of Ireland Grand Master Edward Stevenson said the decision was taken in light of the ongoing pandemic.
He said the decision was in keeping with current government health advice on restricting gatherings
Hoorah for that.
Common sense aside this is a sad day for bigotry in the backward province. With decency under threat from the twin evils of abortion and Gay marriage surely Ulster needs the Orange Order ?
The sight of bowler hatted twats marching through Catholic areas celebrating a 400 year old victory over Catholics is sorely needed.
No word on their famous bonfires yet.
