The Head of the Orange Order this evening spoke of his delight
with what he called "a truly glorious, hugely well-attended
and overwhelmingly peaceful Twelfth."
But Robert Saulters, Grand Master of the Order, also condemned
as outrageous the discovery of a bomb on the railway line
near Moira in Co. Armagh, and a seven-hour illegal protest
by nationalists at Dunloy in Co. Antrim.
" Once again, at Moira and at Dunloy, republicans have
displayed their true sectarian colours," said Mr. Saulters.
"Gerry Adams talked this morning about good manners and
neighbourliness, and said he defended our right to parade.
Those who, in the name of a united Ireland of equals, plant
bombs and stop a small group of elderly men from driving to
church to lay a wreath have no manners and want only to terrorise
their neighbours."
"Thankfully, their actions didn't ruin a fantastic day
of celebration enjoyed by tens of thousands of people right
across Northern Ireland."
