There's going to be some opposition to the rally
Campaigners are planning a rally in Derry to protest against Thursday's decision to prosecute over Bloody Sunday.
Justice for Northern Ireland Veterans are said to be planning a rally holding a protest in the city over the Public Prosecution Service's decisionAlan Barry, founder of the group, told thethat he wants former soldiers to march through the streets in protest at the decision. "We are not happy," he said."One paratrooper prosecuted is one paratrooper too many. It should have been none.
"We are putting out a call to as many veterans who served in Northern Ireland and want to travel over and descend on Londonderry and march through the streets. "We will show people that we will not tolerate one of ours being prosecuted when 300 convicted killers were released from jail and 150 'on the run' letters were handed out to those who weren't apprehended."
