DUP leader Arlene Foster has called for respect after a video emerged of some Tyrone GAA players singing Come Out Ye Black and Tans on their bus as it passed a parade in Aughnacloy.
The video shows some of the team singing as a band of girls playing accordion passed through the town.
The Fermanagh South Tyrone MLA Arlene Foster said: “The bands were unaware of the singing or the comments until this video appeared.
"It was their annual parade. There are many children in the bands.
"The parade is about the music and performance in front of their neighbours. It is not about offending anyone. The singing and the particular offensive remark does not represent many people who support GAA.
"I hope Tyrone GAA deal with this in a sensible way and we all move on.
"The Aughnacloy parade is an example of sharing where they don’t start the parade until the Saturday evening mass is over. There must be respect on all sides if we are to build a shared future."
Tyrone GAA has been contacted for comment, though the BBC has reported team manager Mickey Harte has apologised.
