    I know i can get fined a considerable amount of money for burning stuff on my land (im in the country), why are marching season bonfires exempt? there’s enough of them to cause damage to the environment and with G8 and all the concerns about emissions and global warming should there not be a ban on these? Its not like these fires are a few bits of wood, some of them are as big as a house!

    I was in the Shankill area last year on the Black Taxi Tour around the end of July, they still hadn't cleaned up the remains of the bonfires from what I could see. Broken glass strewn around the place as well.

    The property places there must be ridiculously low........
