Glasgow Orange walk required more than 900 police officers for single march

More than 900 officers had to be deployed to patrol a single Orange Order parade in Glasgow this year, it has been revealed.

Police Scotland sent out almost 1,000 officers during the walk. It is believed the force also had to fork out to cover the cost of policing the march itself.

The annual walk reportedly saw about 7,500 marchers come together to mark the anniversary of the 1690 Battle of the Boyne, GlasgowLive reports.
