Orange Walks!


Not sure what the situation is like outside the Strathclyde area but Glasgow seems to be arriving to a stand still thanks to the 'Orange Walk'!

Yesterday was a complete nightmare! For those familiar with the route from Shawlands into the city centre, it was absolutely impossible to get anywhere!!! Traffic was at a standstill and this wasn't helped by the heat or the fact that everywhere you looked people were wearing Union Jack t-shirts or had the ugly flag painted on their faces.....worse still... wearing Rangers tops! (sorry as a Celtic supporter had to put that in...but on a more serious note....it doesn't help scottish football's fight against bigotry!)

I personally feel these walks should be banned because they aren't about religion and incite hatred in an already 'bigoted Glasgow' What do you guys think?

I whole heartedly agree with your comments, i also think these walks should be banned. When i used to have my shop we were put through the misery of orange walks. Some of these people would take great pleasure in stopping outside catholic houses and playing their music even louder. Later on these people would come in to my shop to purchase their daily bottle of "Bucky" and brag about what they had done.
