I've lived in the north all my life and still have no idea why anyone wants to celebrate the 12th. Getting pissed at a rubbish bonfire followed the next day by dandering up the road with a bit of cloth round your neck and banging a drum isn't exactly top class entertainment. And that's before we even touch on the sectarian element.
Apologies to anyone here who thinks it's great.
2014 in Northern Ireland:
Number of reported attacks on sex workers 70
Number of sex trafficking cases ZERO

I've seen them do it in London as well, up in Westminster not far from Buckingham palace. The marching thing, not the bonfire bit obviously. They looked every bit as angry and standoffish over there too. I thought it odd because I was always of the understanding that the purpose of those marches was to intimidate their opponents, seemed like a bit of a waste goose stepping through Westminster throwing scowls at the confused and snap happy tourists
