Loyalist Flags Removed
Police have removed loyalist paramilitary flags from a housing estate in Holywood, County Down.
The LVF flags were taken down in the Loughview area on Friday.
A police spokesman said five men were questioned in connection with the incident and two were reported to the Director of Public Prosecutions.

Well done to the PSNI. It is absolutely disgraceful that these horrible flags be flown in unionist areas. Why must nationalist communities be forced to live in fear and be subjected to such intimidation?
It shatters the illusion put forward by certain unionists that the problems in society are down to Republicans. Loyalists haven't gone away either.
