Press release from the County Grand Orange Lodge of Belfast to David Trimble on Unionist withdrawal from the talks and the Ormeau Road 12 July parade, 11 July 1997

Writing Peace: David Trimble Collection

The document is a communication from the County Grand Orange Lodge of Belfast, dated 12 July 1997. It details the Lodge's decision to withdraw from a parade on Ormeau Road due to the lack of security provided by Her Majesty's Government against threats orchestrated by Sinn Féin/ PIRA [sic], which included convicted terrorists. The Lodge calls on all unionist politicians to immediately withdraw from the talks process until there is a guarantee of equal rights for Protestants and an end to what they perceive as oppression by Roman Catholics in Ulster.
