The controversial bonfire at Meenan Square in Derry’s Bogside where a fireworks display took place before the pyre was set alight at 11pm on Friday.

Almost six in 10 people in Northern Ireland want a commission set up to regulate and manage bonfires and the display of flags here.

But while nine in 10 nationalists and Alliance voters support the establishment of such a body, three-quarters of unionists oppose it, according to a new poll.
