Is it love or hate coming to town in tomorrow’s Love Ulster parade

There appear to be mixed messages coming from the organiser’s of tomorrow’s Love Ulster parade in Dublin. Organiser Willie Frazer originally said that the parade was intended "to convey the message about how our relatives died at the hands of the IRA."

Today, speaking on RTE, he said the parade was to show "unionist culture" to the people of Dublin.

Yesterday, in the Daily Ireland newspaper he said that he would not stop anyone on the march from carrying posters of a man allegedly involved in the 1974 Dublin bombings that killed 26 people.

"I can’t give a guarantee a photograph of Robert McConnell will not be carried because I wouldn’t be against anyone carrying Robert’s photograph," said Mr Frazer.

Before adding: "Anybody I know who knew Robert would say there is no way he was involved in anything. He was involved with the security forces and he helped the SAS and stuff like that but a lot of people would say that was just part of his job."

At the end of January Frazer said this: ""We do not want to bring Dublin to a standstill, nor cause offence, and we hope we will be allowed to walk peacefully in Dublin to convey the message about how our relatives died at the hands of the IRA."

Tell me this Mr Frazer, if you don’t want to cause offence, whey would you allow marchers to carry posters of a man allegedly involved in the 1974 bombings?
