Description

Mrs Watson, an Orangewoman from Dundonald, has resigned from the Orange Order following a dispute about her attendance at a Catholic ordination in Rome. According to the rules of the Orange Order, no member may attend any Catholic ceremony. Mrs Watson tells William McGookin that she received abuse for her intention to attend the ordination of a German priest whose father saved the life of her brother during World War II.
