In a week of particular cultural significance to the Orange movement, I made these comments in the Belfast Telegraph. Perhaps one day, language in Northern Ireland will be a non-political issue. I was in the debating chamber at Stormont recently and it is quite an old fashioned contrast to the equivalent in Scotland. Hopefully the cultural issues of Northern Ireland won't be as stuck in the past as the politicians' surroundings.
