Aberdeenshire Council agreed the parade to commemorate the anniversary of the Battle of Boyne on 27 June can be held with conditions.

Aberdeenshire’s shame here. Council should have flat out refused on the inevitable counter grounds alone. Stonehaven will be a battleground during the height of their tourist season with a significant impact on their businesses. I hope the people of the shire mind this next time you elect your cooncilors. A shambles of a decision
