Sir, - As "Drumcree 3, Trimble's Revenge" draws closer to our screens, might we expect marches in solidarity with the Orange Order by other groups in divided societies?
Perhaps the Serbs could parade triumphantly through Srbrenica. Admittedly some "neutral" police force would be required to bludgeon the Muslim residents into their homes.
The Klu Klux Klan, resplendent in white pillowcases, might wish to express their civil liberties with a lazy stroll through Harlem.
And some white Afrikaners, perhaps the White Wolves or the AWB, in a heartfelt show of solidarity with the oppressed Orange Order of Ireland, might consider strutting their stuff through a few Soweto townships.
The logic is simple: do not march where you are not wanted.
- Yours, etc.,
Donnybrook, Dublin 4.
