SHAME OF BELFAST

UNIONISTS have condemned the singing of a pro-IRA chant on the final night of the Feile An Phobail.

Social media footage showed the crowd chanting "Oh, ah, up the Ra" as the Wolfe Tones played on Sunday evening at Falls Park, West Belfast.

The festival, which receives public funding, has been criticised in previous years when similar scenes occurred.
