Just watched the news ther, and Belfast City council have opted to take over the organisging of the parade. One MLA came on TV and said that they will have a problem enforcing no Celtic tops or tricolours in the City Centre!!

I'll wear my top and fly my fag proudly.

Happy to see the council giving the money I must admit!!

Yeah, great to see the council is now backing the parade. If Celtic attempt to eradicate bigitory, the city council aren't doing much by basically saying a Celtic / Ranger top is a sectarian emblem.

I can't imagine they'd ban Rangers tops on the 12th parades but thats how it works unfortunately.

If the council want to ban Celtic tops they will. They will probably have a barrier erected to stop people from getting to the city hall for the main events. Most people will just wear the tops underneath a jacket or something.

But good on the council for backing the parade even if it was 25 votes to 24!
