Concerns as SNP say they have ‘no plans’ to continue to hold anti-sectarian summit
FEARS ARE growing that the Scottish government is cooling its anti-sectarian policies inherited from Labour and have been warned the issue could "slip back into the darkness".
Jack McConnell has called on the government to "rectify its mistake" of not holding a summit or launching a fresh strategy on sectarianism this year.
The former first minister, who was integral in introducing the national action plan at Scotland's first summit on sectarianism in 2005, accused the SNP government of taking "popularism too far".

And the national action plan amounted to ........
Go after Rangers and their support while McConnell and his pals enjoy a good singsong from their seats at Celtic park.
Hypocrits ... all of them.

You'd hardly expect the G'nats to be supportive of any organisation (or football team) so closely aligned with Unionism.

The main Boyne demonstrations in Scotland take place on the Saturday prior to the Twelfth of July celebrations in Northern Ireland. Approximately eight to ten thousand demonstrators walk in Glasgow with the same amount of followers and active onlookers. The numbers marching in Glasgow therefore are usually about twenty thousand strong. The County Grand Lodge of Central Scotland typically holds its demonstration on the same day in Lanarkshire. The numbers attending are as large as those in Glasgow. At the same time, around five thousand marchers and five thousand supporters are usually on parade in Ayrshire.
