The Orange Order has staged peaceful protests against

:00:17.:00:20.

the Parades Commission at its annual Twelfth of July

:00:21.:00:22.

At the 17 main parades, marchers stopped for six minutes and a

:00:23.:00:26.

statement calling for the Commission to be scrapped was read out.

:00:27.:00:28.

A major security operation has been in place all day but so far there

:00:29.:00:32.

The morning parade past Ardoyne shops in north Belfast. Local

:00:33.:00:46.

residents came out to watch as well as a large number of Orange Order

:00:47.:00:50.

supporters. They were kept apart by the police. The decision by the

:00:51.:00:56.

Parades Commission not to allow the return March this evening up this

:00:57.:01:02.

part of the Crumlin Road left to protest action today at all of the

:01:03.:01:11.

main parades. And the word is, let them home! We are sobbing for six

:01:12.:01:18.

minutes and all parades are stopping for six minutes to show solidarity

:01:19.:01:23.

with the gang who face six minutes of intolerance. That is because of

:01:24.:01:28.

the Parades Commission as they bow down to threats. As planned, the

:01:29.:01:34.

parade only did stop for six minutes then onto the main demonstration

:01:35.:01:38.

where more calls were made to an end to the Parades Commission. Bands

:01:39.:01:44.

passing close to St Patrick's Catholic church in Donegall Street

:01:45.:01:51.

one is allowed to play music. Sinn Fein it complained that some tunes

:01:52.:01:55.

well played by the attention was eased when the actions of some

:01:56.:01:58.

waters in the parade left all sides smiling. The local priest said that

:01:59.:02:05.

most bands did show respect to the church. There has been a lot of

:02:06.:02:10.

respect from the men as they go past as well. I'm sure the authors did

:02:11.:02:14.

not mean any disrespect when they stopped outside the charge! Large

:02:15.:02:18.

not mean any disrespect when they crowds turned out in the city centre

:02:19.:02:21.

to watch the bands and for most of the

:02:22.:02:21.

Vincent Kearney is at Ardoyne, where the return parade is due shortly.

:02:22.:02:33.

Vincent? Well the parade is due to arrive

:02:34.:02:44.

here shortly. Just like last year, there is a line across the road of

:02:45.:02:50.

police officers. -- that was last year. The police have installed a

:02:51.:02:55.

barrier. You can see members of the Orange Order in front of that. They

:02:56.:02:59.

will form a line across the road in front of the police line. They want

:03:00.:03:04.

to create space between the protest and the police line. Then as the

:03:05.:03:07.

members of the Orange Order walk-through that line they will

:03:08.:03:12.

read a statement of protest. Then the band will play a few tunes and

:03:13.:03:16.

the members of the Orange Order will be asked to turn away. The police

:03:17.:03:22.

and the Orange Order are both confident at this stage that that

:03:23.:03:27.

tactic will avoid a repeat of the violence that we saw at the spot

:03:28.:03:29.

last year. Three flagship parades were held

:03:30.:03:33.

in Larne, Markethill and Limavady. City and country lodges joined in

:03:34.:03:47.

Limavady as the entire Orange Order fraternity of County Londonderry

:03:48.:03:52.

came together for 14 -- we first time in 14 years. Co Armagh has been

:03:53.:03:57.

regarded as the biggest gathering for many years. This year's parade

:03:58.:04:02.

in Markethill was no exception. The rain stayed away and the crowds

:04:03.:04:06.

turned out in their thousands to watch Orange men and women. Lana

:04:07.:04:14.

welcomed the lodges and bands of East Antrim. In common with all

:04:15.:04:18.

today's parade, marchers stopped for six minutes to show their support

:04:19.:04:23.

for the North Belfast Orangemen. It was then time for fun and a bite to

:04:24.:04:24.

eat before the journey home. A community services centre has been

:04:25.:04:29.

badly damaged in an arson attack Petrol bombs and stones were thrown

:04:30.:04:32.

at the Dunanney Centre in the Rathcoole estate

:04:33.:04:36.

in the early hours of this morning. Ceilings came down

:04:37.:04:38.

and several windows were smashed. The centre houses the Citizens

:04:39.:04:40.

Advice Bureau and Sure Start. This is the second time in a matter

:04:41.:04:52.

of months that we have been targeted. It beggars belief because

:04:53.:04:57.

we are the hub of this community. There are 200 people coming through

:04:58.:05:01.

the centre every day, from babies to pensioners.

:05:02.:05:03.

Three men have been injured in separate overnight knife attacks

:05:04.:05:05.

A 28-year-old was stabbed during sectarian clashes at Ormeau

:05:06.:05:10.

In East Belfast, a 21-year-old man was stabbed in Montrose Street.

:05:11.:05:15.

And in north Belfast, a 19-year-old man was stabbed

:05:16.:05:17.

Good evening. A better day coming up. Some rain coming though it will

:05:18.:05:39.

move away to the east. Just 12-macro light showers overnight. Also mild

:05:40.:05:45.

night. Tomorrow is a better, brighter day. Also drier. There will

:05:46.:05:50.

be one two showers but they will be white -- they will be light and

:05:51.:05:54.

scattered. There is good weather across the Republic of Ireland as

:05:55.:05:58.

well. Also Wales, western England and parts of western Scotland. For

:05:59.:06:03.

the East of Scotland, eastern England and central England, there

:06:04.:06:08.

will be quite a few showers, some on the heavy side. In the least,

:06:09.:06:13.

brighter conditions move into the West, it will be a bit fresher.

:06:14.:06:19.

Similar temperatures in Northern Ireland it will not be feeling quite

:06:20.:06:23.

as money. Another weather front on the way on Monday. More spells of

:06:24.:06:31.

rain. That's it. You can keep up-to-date
