“Established to campaign for Equality. Civil Rights. Welcome to all who support the campaign. The two main objectives are to see the Ligoniel lodges, bands and supporters complete their 12th july parade; to have the current parades commission removed. Please note the camp and the surrounding area is an alcohol free zone. All music must finish by 9 p.m. and the wishes of the local residents fully respected. Thank you for your support. United we stand – divided we fall.”

Three images from the protest camp at the top of Twaddell Avenue, at the southern border of Ardoyne. The protest is in response to a parades commission ruling that, on July 12th, Orange marches could only go past the Ardoyne shops in the morning but not return via the same route.
