Nationalist protestors in Northern Ireland have clashed with Police as militant protestants attempted to stage a traditional march.
The clash comes a day before a mass rally called in the city by Sinn Fein to protest the slow progress in all party talks in Northern Ireland.
This morning residents in the Catholic Ormeau Road area of the Belfast attempted to block the march by protestants.
When they refused to clear the route, riot officers of the Royal Ulster Constabulary moved in.
There was a heavy Police presence on the Ormeau Road from early this morning. Nationalist residents have failed to stop two loyalist marches already this year. When they staged a sit down on the road, Police moved in forcefully.
Several protestors were injured. At least one received a heavy blow to the head.
Bricks and bottles were thrown at the Police as they moved the crowd of three hundred aside.
A small march by protestants was then shepherded through the area.
The so-called Apprentice Boys Parades are held on this date each year to commemorate an historical defeat of Catholic forces more than 300 years ago.
The main march is in Derry City.
This morning nationalists there also tried to stop the protestant parade.
Amongst the two hundred protestors, Martin McGuinness, the main Republican negotiator in talks with the British Government over Northern Ireland.
After declaring the gathering illegal, Police also moved in on these protestors, though with considerably less force.
The protestors were herded into a street running along side the ancient wall of Derry, along which the Protestant Apprentice Boys march.
There Martin McGuinness this morning protests in both Derry and Belfast were a defeat for the Police.
SOUNDBITE:
We have already seen on the Ormeau Road, violence being used by the RUC against the people of the Ormeau Road this morning. What we want the people of Derry to do now, the people who are standing here with us, is to walk with us quietly through the gate, because this has been a major defeat for the RUC and for the Orangemen.
SUPER CAPTION: Martin McGuinness, Sinn Fein deputy leader
As the Protestant marches paraded past, the nationalists turned their backs, and raised clenched fists in a silent protest

1:00 that baton crack 😂
It’s not something to laugh at. If your a child, that man might have died and you have to be considerate before you speak.
Ruc were scumbags
he was the one picked up unconscious with blood on the ground.
white t-shirt , jeans and black hair. he gets hit at 0:59
0.56-1.18 absolutely disgusting from the RUC
What do you expect they were animals
What do you expect fair play to ruc
@@carolhamilton2512
disbanded.
Gone
i don't even know what's going on half the time
Fantastic.....
Do they know how offensive that chant is
flip sake , i cant even see where the ball is? whats the name of this sport?
TaigBall, bit like dodgeball but with batons. Great sport
A most enjoyable film
Just imagine if this happen if environmentalist protestors faced the Royal Ulster Constabulary if it still existed
The environmentalist would blow a fuse with all that smoke.❤
Is it any wonder they wer shot and blown up then disbanded
thats all yous understand is a baton round the loaf
How would you have Policed it then. Some folk are just born to protest and agitate. On both sides that is. Not sure why you posted what you did. The Police didn’t organise the parade, nor did they organise the protest.
@@ononewheellad the ruc, orange order an loyalist paramilitaries were all colluding with each other through that era.
@@ThePierce87 It’s estimated that over 70% of Republicans were informers/agents, so correct me if I’m wrong, that’s collusion too. Loyalist figures are higher again.
@@ononewheellad can i have the link for those figures of 70%.
The Police Heavy Handed As Always Are They Keeping The Law For One Side And Let The Other Side Tell Them What To Do It Looks That Way Too Many People
Why you would send police into a riot wearing shirt and tie is beyond me
Love seeing beating Tim's.
Lovely .
Reminiscence of the West Bank today , RUc/IDF
I remember the days!
Me2
That's it, protect your oo friends
The police in the United States should be more like the Royal Ulster constabulary
So, disbanded? I agree?
Scumbags
Absolutely brilliant ruc work great days
seeing the kid in the white tshirt dead is so tragic
He aint dead ,he got cute and got his attitude adjusted the little prixk.
While the prods were drinking , Sinn Fein was thinking!!!!
This police is not trained properly. Tear gas would dissipate that crowd quickly and would've avoided such a violent close contact. A bunch of grown men engaging into a savage street fight with teens. That's disgusting.
Are you public order trained?
Tear gas was banned at that time because of the effect it had on people and the impression it would create
You don't understand the complex policing and public order this required. I take it you don't understand Northern Ireland.
0:56 BANG, hahaha
In what way is that funny?
Goodnight green and white
Ho many trophies have the blue end won in the last decade ? Only 2. Goodnight Beale the Squeel.
RUC = SS? You have no knowledge of the time between 1933 and 1945!
Funny that, they call the RUC the SS, yet the Republicans were the ones who wanted to collaborate with the Germans
@@bigearl3271 where do you think he original uvf got they're guns.Germany. It was a source of guns for both sides back then ...
Great police service
Apartheid.
All that because mc Donald's was closed early
At least the Irish cops have ago
0:56 lights out son.
Is this your idea of a joke? If so I pity you. I'm a retired British (mainland) police sergeant and that thug with the truncheon, masquerading as a "police" officer, should have been instantly dismissed with no pension rights for that. Disgraceful.
John Chelt go fuck your self you have NO idea what is \ was going on there !!!!
@@johnstephenson01no pension rights? How about no right to life
The ruc a protestant paramilitary police force
3:24 Are the nationalists doing the nazi salute at them? lol
Kevin Donnelly probably are tbh the fenians do anything to get fame or luck with hitler.
They are, to show they were just like nazis hench the chanting SS RUC.. SS as in SS men the nazis..
Cancer got you ha fking ha
How the unionists have fallen now
how have they fallen
@@williamconn814 Was that a serious reply? England says they want rid of the Union, they have disbanded the police force in favor of Irish officers, annexed the North by moving the border from the land to the sea and handed you over to EU law and funding from the rest of Ireland,
so ask again, "how have they fallen?".
martin , ira man,, & i have walked the walls !!
One mans terrorist is another mans freedom fighter. RIP Martin.
💚💚💚💚💚
So what... You've walked the walls
RIP Patsy Gillespie, wonder if Marty was in pain?
And how the times have changed. The OO and the PUL community have been thrown under the bus many times since by their elected representatives and successive governments. And boy is it fantastic to see.
😆😆😆😆😆😆
Lol
Martin the British tout 😂😂😂
Gypos lot them
Try learn respect when you’ve never faced injustice yourself.
The 'RA should have came out.
God Bless the RUC and all who served selflessly and with dedication.
God bless the innocent people murdered by the RUC
RUC scum have gone to and will rot in hell along with the British army.
Fuck off ya orange bastard
@@TheGentlemansShow rubbish I am white, unless someone has dropped huge bottle tan over me, then I would be black and tan
Awk fuck up prody bastard
0:55 you can here the impact 😂😂😂😂
Ahh the RUC, a police force that often seemed like it belonged more to South Africa than South Armagh. Good riddance
Marty’s put weight on 😂😂
They deserved 10x more than what they actually recieved. IMO not enough was done or enough were wiped off the map.
SSRUC
What a vile individual you are ! Would you say the same if it was your son, brother, father etc. and they were Protestants protesting a Catholic march ? Of course not. You and your kind are the core of all of this hate.
Not a clash an instance of state violence
RR RUC RUC USE BLACK BASTAREDS CANT CATCH ME

Christ and they call themselves a Police Service! Disgusting
