tomorrow several thousand people of generally far right political opinion and fundementalist Xian religious belief will go marching down their streets to the delight and annoyance of their co-community residents.
They are the Orange Men.
They are the Orange Men.
over fifty year old bigots.
Now if you are a modern well adjusted Briton, of the post-imperialist type, perhaps descended from the Windrush or with close relatives in the borderlands between AFghanistan and Pakistan you might feel slightly "off-put" by Orange men.
if you are a serious intellectual type who thinks we should leave messing around with such delicate areas of the Peace Process yawn yawn, coz they are too "contentshuz" then go back in the UK IMC archive.
