muirkirk nil Posted July 19, 2018 Share Posted July 19, 2018 (edited) https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-glasgow-west-44886980 An Orange march, due to take place in Glasgow on Saturday, has been cancelled. The parade was due to pass the scene of a sectarian attack on a priest during a similar event on 7 July. Police Scotland are investigating claims Canon Tom White was spat on as an Orange parade passed St Alphonsus church in the city's east end. Glasgow City Council confirmed the walk would not go ahead following a meeting with the organisers. The Orange Lodge said the postponement would allow time for further discussions. Police were called after reports Canon Tom White was spat on, struck with a baton and verbally abused outside the church, near the Barras market, as the parade passed by. Orange Lodge leaders insisted the attack was nothing to do with the parade. The ordeal sparked calls for a ban on Orange walks or a change of route away from the Catholic church involved in the incident. Council leader Susan Aitken ordered Orange Lodge leaders to take responsibility for anti-Catholic behaviour occurring at their parades and warned organisers that if it did not voluntarily change the route of parades, the council would "insist". A meeting took place between the council and the Grand Orange Lodge of Scotland on Wednesday. Following discussions, a council spokeswoman said: "Council officers had a productive meeting with the organisers. "We will continue to engage with both the organisers and the church community - but have agreed that the planned procession will not take place on Saturday." A spokesman from the Grand Orange Lodge of Scotland said: "We welcome the opportunity to continue positive dialogue with Glasgow City Council, the police, and other stakeholders regarding future parades. "We should be looking forward, not back, and our lodges therefore took the decision to postpone the parade due to take place this Saturday, therefore allowing some additional time over those discussions which would give everyone the opportunity to look at matters from a fresh, forward thinking perspective. "The Grand Orange Lodge of Scotland fully supports this decision." Police continue to investigate the attack on Canon White Edited July 19, 2018 by muirkirk nil 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Inanimate Carbon Rod Posted July 20, 2018 Share Posted July 20, 2018 Another one, why do people who profess to be such avid acolytes of Protestantism call themselves Prodestants? You’d think being so ‘staunch’ they’d be able to spell it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh god. What a coincidence. Buy a lottery ticket now. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tamthebam Posted July 22, 2018 Share Posted July 22, 2018 Mate told me a tale in the pub tonight- He and an English guy were delivering a telly to a house. They enter the living room. Above the fireplace is a huge portrait of King Billy on the white horse and on the other wall in a frame is an Orange sash. English guy points to the picture of King Billy and says the words "Oh, are you into cowboy movies then?"..... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supermik Posted October 28, 2018 Share Posted October 28, 2018 Some guy has been shot in a punishment type shooting. His teenage daughter offered the gunmen her PIGGY BANK to try to stop them from shooting her dad. They never accepted her offer, instead they took her phone so she was unable to call for help. Doubt it will ever change somehow. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
