DUP advised mayor not to visit park
The DUP had advised the Belfast lord mayor not to visit a park where he was later attacked by loyalist protesters.
Four DUP politicians also wrote to the council ahead of the visit, saying it was inappropriate for Sinn Féin's Máirtín Ó Muilleoir to open the park.
Mr Ó Muilleoir and nine police officers sustained minor injuries during violent scuffles in Woodvale park on Tuesday.
