Bring Orange Order in from the cold

I THINK that it is, perhaps, time to adopt a more intelligent approach to the problem of the Orange Order than that advocated by Brian P Murphy and Rev David Armstrong.

The Order received a serious, possibly terminal, defeat over the Drumcree issue and appear to have lost much support and, in fact, may have become an embarrassment within their own community.

Nobody would seriously deny that they are a sectarian group, but they are in decline and this might be the time to offer them a chance to climb back from their present limb of isolation.
