Twelfth of July: Unionists slam BBC Northern Ireland over plans to axe live coverage

BBC Northern Ireland has been accused of being "anti-unionist" following plans to axe its live coverage of the Twelfth of July.

The Belfast parade, which has been televised live by the BBC for decades, was not broadcast for the past two years when events were either cancelled or scaled back during the Covid-19 pandemic.

The Orange Order has been told by the BBC there are no plans to resume the live part of coverage of the Twelfth this year.
