Politicians and church leaders press for resolution
Efforts continued over the weekend to end the violence in Belfast. Politicians and church leaders held talks at the Rev Mervyn Gibson’s Westbourne Presbyterian Church in an attempt to find a compromise.
But Robin Newton, of the Democratic Unionist Party, said a lack of engagement from protest organisers was making it difficult to see an end to the unrest. “We have to find a way out of this, but how we do it I don’t know,” he said.
