Thanks but...... the Orange Parade was not publicly funded and this article indicates that it was a request for public funding. Find me evidence where a privately funded parade was turned down on grounds of offence and we can continue.

You asked for something relating to people being offended and you got it

I don't care who funded what so go argue with someone who does :-)

Not the slightest bit disingenuous. The link in the OP made it very clear that no public funding was being used for the Orangse Parade. Statements in your link make it clear that public funding was being requested for the Pats one. I make the point because you are not comparing like with like which is what I, not unrrasonably in my view, assumed you were.

St Patrick day celebrations take place in Glasgow every year. It tells you that in the article you posted a link too as evidence of GCC banning St Patrick day celebrations.

Dare I say it

Aye I dare.

In an article about a cancelled paddy's day celebration Aldo says it didn't happen

Mindy says GCC bans St Patrick day celebrations then posts an article that plainly states that St Patrick day celebrations take place in Glasgow every year.

He and I are shining examples of why you should get rid of Catholic schools. Sure, they produce clever kids but they do not half churn out some ****ing ******s.
George square was full of ******s today and I would be surprised if any of them were the ptoduct of a catholic education.

Did I say they banned them all?

No

They banned one under similar circumstances to the orangefest

But keep on having your own conversation, your certainly showing yourself

Dans already pointed out to you how very different the circumstances were. I won't bother adding to that. He did such a fine job.<laugh>
 
You don't even know which conversation you are in
Yes I do. It's the one where you are making a **** of yourself.

Do me a favour. Go to your article and copy and paste the bit where it says GCC banned the parade.

The article was published before any decisions were made, which is obvious once you read it

I mean it's actually titled

Politicians at odds over planned St Patrick's Day parade in Glasgow

which would inform even the below average reader that no decision has been made at that time

The article was picked simply because Dan asked for some evidence that complaints from Orangemen were involved in any decision

It may or may not have sufficed, but Dan then changed the subject to something about private and publicly financed events which I have no interest in arguing about

BUT I am happy to say the following so that you can go to bed happy that tonight you have won the Internet

Ready

"GCC pure hate the Irish n at cos they cancelled Jesuses Irish birthday"

Goodnight

So.......
The article you posted as proof GCC banned St Paddies day doesn't actually prove that GCC banned anything.

Dare I say it again

I think I do
