Interview with Gerry Kelly and Winston Irvine by Stephen Nolan for BBC Radio The Ulster Nolan Show on 13 September 2013

Published:

Audio interview with Gerry Kelly, Sinn Féin MLA for Belfast North, and Winston Irvine, PUP director of communications, by Stephen Nolan for BBC Radio Ulster The Nolan Show on 13 September 2013. On 9 July the Parades Commission ruled that an Orange Order parade could not pass through the Ardoyne area of Belfast on its return journey on 12 July, a decision which led to clashes between protesters and the PSNI in north and east Belfast for several days. Protesters against the decision subsequently set-up a camp at Twaddell Avenue, Belfast, to demand a reversal of the Parades Commission ruling. In this interview Kelly and Irvine discuss possible solutions to the impasse. The Nolan Show is a daily current affairs programme on BBC Radio Ulster.
