    It's part of their Heritage and Culture apparently ER. It's also symbolic as most of them are pish stained wooden tops <ok>

    It's an allusion to "Wid Ye" threads on here.

    The pallets signify the "wid" part and the mattresses are pretty much self explanatory. <ok>

    &#8220;The structure is 240 pallets high and is estimated to be 120 feet tall. A stolen religious icon from a memorial to a suicide victim was allegedly placed on top of the bonfire on Tuesday but has subsequently been removed"

    It's an effigy of Gerry Adams, an enemy of the British state.
