"Only amongst a bigoted den of hate filled hypocrites, could St. Patricks Day be attacked in Ireland!! Tricolours? Let me remind you that in spite of what you may think, you are in Ireland and no matter how much you kick and squeal, no matter how loudly yo"
"St. Patrick's Day is a recongizable holiday to celebrate one's Irish hertiage, even if you live in the USA & have never been there!!! How can someone live in Ireland & not celebrate it when everyone else in the world does???"
"I think it is a disgrace that any other country, with an Irish contingent, in the world celebrates this holiday and yet at home it isn't given the support of the city's council Address Currnetly Sydney (Australia), home address in Belfast"
"It is an important aspect of the Irish Heritage!"
"Jim (Wee Seamy) Kerrigan will be in castle street asking passers by for 20p mucker!"
"As stated on home page, I find it a disgrace that St Patricks day is celebrated all over the world but not here. It really does beggar belief that the patron saint of this country cannot be officially celebrated in this part of Ireland.."
"That is a joke!"
"i think that we have the right to celebrate one of our saints and that there should not have to be a promble what so ever."
"If we dont appreciate our true cultures and beliefs, then we will never be an equal society."
"Yet another disgraceful decision!"
"Funding for St Patrick's Day is available to many cities throughout the world, surely Belfast deserves this more than most!"
"This would be a good investment as it would bring more tourism to Northern Ireland, also full support of the St Patricks Festival from Belfast City Council is long over due. Address Belfast Resident"
