Thousands in Ireland block British loyalist march
Original: “Thousands of Irish people take to the streets to block a British loyalist march that nobody wants” by Deaglan O’Mulroon
On October 27, thousands of people gathered in the rain in Ireland to block a British loyalist march, according to a report by Deaglan O'Mulrooney. Demonstrators turned out en masse to stop the procession, which the report describes as unwanted locally. The large counter-protest highlights continuing tensions in Ireland over loyalist parades and their British unionist symbolism.
Why now: Fresh images of a large crowd physically blocking a contested loyalist march are drawing attention amid ongoing tensions over such parades.
