For the avoidance of doubt as a Unionist and a Proud member of the Orange Order of that I make no apology I wish to categorically state that anything Jamie Bryson says is not endorsed by me. I wish to see NI flourish and those who identify as Irish live along side those who

Identify as British and perhaps Northern Irish too. The time has come for us all to have our culture free from disruption by those who don't see it the same way n any side. Live and let live is what I say. I will speak to anyone and with anyone. Take me as you find me. You are

Respectful with me I shall return the same to you. When I had my recent bereavement privately and publicly those from a republican background contacted me to offer their condolences and I welcome that fully. This is how the new NI continues IMO and how

Orangeism and other things we all hold dear continues. Many years ago Catholics attended the 12th untouched and they enjoyed the spectacle for what it was. A musical day to get together and have a drink. This can become the normal again in society. We just have to want it.
