I will finish with my next point. Unfortunately, we do not have enough time to debate these issues in full, but we have seen terrible incidents on our television screens. I deplore last night's activity throughout many parts of the Six Counties. In particular, I deplore the individuals and micro-groups responsible for it. Let us be clear that they exploited a situation in which the Orange Order refuses to show real leadership and continues to force five or six marches among thousands through an area where they are not accepted by people on the ground.
