Text
First Minister, your decision to stand with the people of the Garvaghy Road in solidarity with a community that is completely opposed to an unwanted and provocative Orange Order march was a hugely important act of leadership. Do you agree that some of the language that has been used by unionist politicians in response to your engagement with the Garvaghy Road residents has been deliberately provocative and deeply offensive and, in fact, says more about their political agenda?
