Northern Ireland's government could collapse over Drumcree march dispute
Northern Ireland's First Minister Michelle O'Neill joined protesters blocking a controversial Orange Order march, sparking outrage from unionists. The Drumcree march dispute, over a parade the Parades Commission allowed last Friday, could lead to a major party leaving the power-sharing government. If a party resigns, other ministers could stay in caretaker roles for up to 48 weeks, but the crisis highlights Stormont's fragile system.
