Love Ulster parade depends on proper planning, warns chamber

GARDAÍ must not allow another planned Love Ulster parade to pass through Dublin unless it can guarantee there won’t be a repeat of the violence that cost businesses €10 million last year.

Dublin Chamber of Commerce chief executive Gina Quin said the riots in O’Connell Street had not only hit Dublin in the pocket on the day but also through a loss of reputation from an international perspective.

Willie Frazer of the South Armagh Protestant victims’ group Families Acting for Innocent Relatives, is to meet the assistant Garda commissioner this morning where he hopes to get permission from the gardaí for a parade and rally in the capital, possibly in July.
