Presbyterian Moderator Dr Harry Uprichard and issued the following statement following the overnight rioting.
I am appalled by the widespread rioting that has spread across Belfast and beyond and shocked by its violence and ferocity.
Anyone with influence should use it to diffuse tension and do all they can to return calm to our communities.
All involved should use only peaceful and lawful methods to create a climate in which the many concerns and worries about freedom to express culture, to achieve justice and equality and about human rights can de dealt with constructively.
Dr Harry Uprichard
Presbyterian Moderator.
