PSNI hoping for peaceful Orange Order march in Belfast

Nationalist residents and the Orange Order have said they are not expecting trouble ahead of today's contentious Whiterock parade.

In previous years the Orange Order parade, which takes place in West Belfast, has sparked violent clashes.

Nationalists are bitterly opposed to the parade while Orangemen say they are following a traditional route.

The PSNI have said they hope to have a low-key presence in the area, despite several nights of sectarian rioting in east Belfast earlier this week.
