Looks to me that the "quality" of the music is diminishing year on year and the participants are getting older! Just seems that way to me.☹️

[@shadowmanstrolls811]

All a matter of opinion friend , there seemed a healthy number of weeans there. A lot of new junior orange lodges formed recently. Thanks for watching 👍

[@Bernaren60]

This is Irish culture at its best. Proud of ye boys!🇮🇪 Seo cultúr na hÉireann den scoth. Táimid bródúil asaibh, a leaideanna.

United Kingdom people marching in the United Kingdom - tell me where the problem is or who's feelings (fee, fees) are going to get hurt.

[@shadowmanstrolls811]

Exactly 💯 👍

[@grianstadantsamharaidh1951]

Their ancestors were planted here in Ireland hundreds of years ago , the present planter descendants must be at least the 2 th generation if not more.. It is surely time for them to realize that they were born and raised and live in Ireland. Hold on to your culture but it seems that part of that culture is trying to ride roughshod over those indigenous Irish who suffered so long under Westminster colonial rule.

[@shadowmanstrolls811]

The original planters were the Gaels. They arrived after the original people of these islands. The Picts. So really, you are of planter stock, my people just returned. thanks for getting involved and helping the algorithm. More to come ha ha

@@shadowmanstrolls811 no im not raging i just think its really really sad that men in their 50s dress up in sectarian outfits singing sectarian songs for the sectarian group of sectarian belfast in fact the loyalists are actually racist in my mind

Can we all just live together in peace.

[@shadowmanstrolls811]

No issues, it was very peaceful today, lots of tourists, foreigners and I'm sure there were people of nationalist persuasion there too. Agreed, let's be positive, thanks for watching 👍

@@shadowmanstrolls811 Great to hear, Northern Ireland is a beautiful place with extremely friendly people on both sides.

[@shadowmanstrolls811]

@pugna.3772 more making the point that the parade wasn't some hate fest that some others like to imply. As for foreigners, my view is moderate immigration is ok, we don't have moderate immigration however, we have mass immigration, which is detrimental to society. Anyway, thanks for watching

[@johnmcquade329]

@@shadowmanstrolls811 its a racist march tho, kids running round singing songs about hating the irish and catholics what sorta culture are you teaching them, during 1916 marches the youth there respectfully talk about past heroes and show respect to the dead generations, we don't sing songs about hating protestants or the loyalists who are delusinional and think their british lol

[@johnmcquade329]

@@shadowmanstrolls811 i doubt a single member of the nationalist community would be interested in attending a march designed to show bigotry hate sectarianism and racism against their people their language their tradition their faith their nation and their history and flag wouldn't make sense

Observation on this years 12th. The Belfast bands are all booming in membership, to the point where it would be good for new areas to consider forming new bands as the interest and numbers is clearly there. Would be great to see some Pipe, Silver or Accordion bands formed in Belfast it would really add to the colour of the day. Another observation is that lodges need to boost their memberships, very poor show for many.

[@shadowmanstrolls811]

Some fair points there, do love an accordion/pipe/silver band myself. I have seen encouraging signs for the orange, swelling of lodge numbers in certain areas (eg Shankill), new junior lodges in Carrick, Armagh etc

[@Timberdoodle197]

Membership of the Orange order is at an all time low thankfully the majority of the younger generation couldn't give a damn about this circus its only in cess pools like Belfast are they still interested because let's face it what else would they be doing, certainly not anything productive anyway.

[@jimblount9691]

Refreshing, modern, realistic thinking! Irish people need to move on for the benefit of all Irish people. I think that the ballot box will eventually settle the problem anyway and peace will eventuate!😊

Half of them will be on the social claiming they cant walk.

That's cute , considering highest welfare claimant areas are generally nationalist.eg, Derry/Strabane. Thanks for watching
