of course, still in america of course, they still in america for large number of people, for a large number of people, the emerald isle is seen as a country full of leprechauns and people knocking back the guinness, which, of course, to some extent it is. but in reality, there's a lot more to it. and from the point of view of those who are unionists and who believe in the united kingdom, like the dup , biden is kingdom, like the dup, biden is a very uncomfortable person to be dealing with as a peacemaker. and i, i don't think i think it's very likely he won't achieve much . now, he's already achieve much. now, he's already criticised the dup for not attending stormont, but of course the sinn fein did the same thing they did. so they all play same thing they did. so they all play this game unfortunately, and i really still think that the idea of bringing sinn fein and the dup properly together is something of something really hard to achieve. what do you make— hard to achieve. what do you make ei— hard to achieve. what do you make ei nin — hard to achieve. what do you make of him saying- hard to achieve. what do you make of him saying at- “m: {wit what do you make of him saying at the “cii: cit what do you make of him saying at the easter egg make of him saying at the easter egg nannie— make of him saying at the easter egg eeneee en— make of him saying at the easter egg parade or whatever it was in

good morning and welcome to belfast. this— good morning and welcome to belfast. this marina- good morning and welcome to belfast. " iii" i: belfast. this marina here behind us, it was one of those things that came about after the good friday agreement 25 years ago. this very area i was standing on now was a scrap yard. in fact, i think it was the joshua tree album . the streets have no name. album. the streets have no name. i think this is the very place where they were playing and across over there was the old docks of belfast. it's very much transformed now . we're just transformed now. we're just saying to eamonn holmes this morning young police morning i saw a young police constable walking up past me this morning on their own that would have been unheard of. 25 years ago in the city. you would have had several ruc men, heavily armed and fully clothed in bullet—proof clothing, going up through the streets of belfast with gates to be searched in behind. so as much as the good friday agreement is not working, it is a piece it's an imperfect piece , but it is a an imperfect piece, but it is a piece. and the stuff that we saw yesterday in and around that republican parade is in londonderry was very much a monitoring exercise by the psni.

you'll notice that that land rover that took so much of those petrol bombs , it was basically petrol bombs, it was basically on skis. those snatch land rovers are very heavily armoured and they had cctv cameras on the top, very much monitoring who was who. and you will find lots of arrests going on there today in the round and the next few days in and around those areas . days in and around those areas. and the young men that were foolishly involved in that will be facing the rigours of the law at that stage of the game. but us joe biden arrives here later on this evening. he will have a meeting with five parties. and like your former contributor was saying there, unionists here in northern ireland do not trust joe biden. in 1995, 96, 97, the stars aligned actually at that stage. they bring various political people together that all had trust in one another. arlene foster did that interview with bertie ahern last weekend, and in that you can hear that

there was trust. there was concern those in middle class in the republic of ireland realised that they had more in common with their unionist friends in northern ireland in that part of the uk religion very much died out of it at that stage and that's what really brought the good friday agreement to where it . now what we have is a it was. now what we have is a protocol bill, a framework document that isn't trusted by unionists and it isn't trusted because rishi sunak tried to oversell it when he first brought it here. if he had of came out and said, look, it's not a great deal, it's a better deal than we've got, we'll try and use it as a framework to go forward. i think sirjeffrey forward. i think sir jeffrey donaldson may had a better donaldson may have had a better chance selling it to the chance of selling it to the unionist population, and he might have. we might have seen stormont and running. might have. we might have seen storasint and running. might have. we might have seen storas for and running. might have. we might have seen storas for tomorrow, d running. might have. we might have seen storas for tomorrow, d rurjoe g. but as for tomorrow, with joe biden, it fantastic on biden, it is fantastic on a world to have the world stage to have the president of united states president of the united states here. politically we very here. but politically we very much think that it is not going to go much further . interesting. to go much further. interesting. thank you for that. yeah, we've

like personal attacks, and particularly when they're really unpleasant, as i think this is one of the most i mean, the child sex one is the most unpleasant advertisement i've seen in politics. what's the point of the i think it's done. the labour party more harm than good. yeah. and they're trying to say because sentencing policy over the last 12 years has meant there's a lot of child sex offenders who haven't been locked up. they're blaming that on locked up. they're blaming that en kieni— locked up. they're blaming that on rishi sunak_ locked up. they're blaming that on rishi sunak it— t: s they're blaming that on rishi sunak it didn't become an on rishi sunak it didn't become en iii— on rishi sunak it didn't become en iii wniii— on rishi sunak it didn't become an mp until 2015— on rishi sunak it didn't become an mp until 2015 and he's only keen— been prime minister for five nenkne. — been prime minister for five nenkne. ne— been prime minister for five months. he was- been prime minister for five months. he was a- been prime minister for five months. d been prime minister for five months. 3g i: months. he was a hedge fund manager. he was when a lot of wie— manager. he was when a lot of knie ee— manager. he was when a lot of the geing— manager. he was when a lot of this was going on. _ manager. he was when a lot of this was going on. but- g he was when a lot of this was going on. but also to imply, they do with his imply, as they do with his signature on advertisement, signature on the advertisement, that irish sunak don't want to send abusers to prison send child sex abusers to prison is preposterous suggestion . is a preposterous suggestion. and anyone with any intelligence would know that, because the one thing you cannot criticise is rishi for is his integrity , rishi for is his integrity, motty and his moral standards , motty and his moral standards, which are extremely high and i think to attack someone , it think to attack someone, it shows really that they've run out of ideas. i mean, starmer is the most boring leader of the

opposition. you can think of. he hasn't got much of an edge. he hasn't got much of an edge. he hasn't got much of an edge. he hasn't got any style. and so they've said, look, we've got to do something to show we're fighting aggressively here. and this is what they've come up with. and quite frankly , it's with. and quite frankly, it's disgraceful and they should remove it and apologise. i always thought that maybe keir sterner— always thought that maybe keir starmer hadn't— always thought that maybe keir starmer hadn't been involved in this starmer hadn't been involved in knie nei— starmer hadn't been involved in knie nee ne— starmer hadn't been involved in this had he not— starmer hadn't been involved in this had he not seen it. he's kne— this had he not seen it. he's kne ieeien— this had he not seen it. he's the leader, isn't— this had he not seen it. he's the leader, isn't he? but he is kne— the leader, isn't he? but he is we ieeien— the leader, isn't he? but he is the leader and— the leader, isn't he? but he is the leader and as— the leader, isn't he? but he is the leader and as emily inennienw— the leader and as emily thornberry said the other day, you— thornberry said the other day, you knew. — thornberry said the other day, you knew. aki— thornberry said the other day, you know. all right. okay so kieni— you know. all right. okay so kieni new— you know. all right. okay so rishi may have— you know. all right. okay so rishi may have been a hedge fund ege— rishi may have been a hedge fund ege beek— rishi may have been a hedge fund manager back in— rishi may have been a hedge fund manager back in the day, but the neck— manager back in the day, but the neck-witn— manager back in the day, but the neck-win kne— manager back in the day, but the buck with the leader. well buck stops with the leader. well the buck stops with the leader. well we iwek— buck stops with the leader. well the buck does— buck stops with the leader. well the buck does stop— buck stops with the leader. well the buck does stop with the ieeien— the buck does stop with the ieeien in— the buck does stop with the leader in both— the buck does stop with the leader in both cases so the buck does stop with the leaibuck both cases so the buck does stop with the leaibuck stops cases so the buck does stop with the leaibuck stops with; so the buck stops with keir sterner. — the buck stops with keir starmer.-it. the buck stops with keir- starmer. _it appalling starmer. and i find it appalling wet— starmer. and i find it appalling gig ke— starmer. and i find it appalling now that to issue _ starmer. and i find it appalling now that to issue yet another eiwen— now that to issue yet another advert attacking— advert attacking his wife, eneeking— advert attacking his wife,| attacking _his attacking his wife and his feniiw— attacking his wife and his feniiw. i— attacking his wife and his family. i mean, if i'd have printed— family. i mean, if i'd have printed some— family. i mean, if i'd have printed some of- family. i mean, if i'd have printed some of these accusations- printed some of these accusations in black white accusations in black and white in—ieek- accusations in black and white in—ieek in- accusations in black and white in _back in the. accusations in black and white. in_back in the day, in my newspaper back in the day, yeah,— in my newspaper back in the day, ween ii— in my newspaper back in the day, ween, i-i newe— in my newspaper back in the day, yeah, i'd have been— in my newspaper back in the day, yeah, i'd have been ins» yeah, i'd have been sued. no, i eneeg — yeah, i'd have been sued. no, i egee kne— yeah, i'd have been sued. no, i egee and if— yeah, i'd have been sued. no, i agree. and if indeed- yeah, i'd have been sued. is» cigisns; and if indeed the agree. and if indeed the conservatives— cigisns; and if indeed the conservatives tried anything iike—eew- like this on, let's say, eiwgeen— like this on, let's say, sturgeon, which oh gosh, you

going to say it's very understandable that people do have sympathy for people working in the nhs on the front line. it's an incredibly hard job and the it's an incredibly hard job and ine-gneei,- it's an incredibly hard job and the-great, but- it's an incredibly hard job and the great, but this it's an incredibly hard job and the seem great, but this it's an incredibly hard job and the seem to great, but this it's an incredibly hard job and the seem to be at, but this it's an incredibly hard job and the seem to be veryit this it's an incredibly hard job and the seem to be very political. does seem to be very political. as does seem to be very political. ke wen— does seem to be very political. ke you eew— does seem to be very political. as you say, coming straight off a as you say, coming straight off e nenk— as you say, coming straight off a bank holiday— as you say, coming straight off a bank holiday four days, four newe— a bank holiday four days, four iewe ie— a bank holiday four days, four iewe ie e— a bank holiday four days, four eewe ie e wen— a bank holiday four days, four days is a very long time and were— days is a very long time and inene ee— days is a very long time and there was talk— days is a very long time and there was talk this morning in ei— there was talk this morning in ei kne— there was talk this morning in one of the papers, i believe the eweniien— one of the papers, i believe the guardian, about— one of the papers, i believe the guardian, about them doing it ener— guardian, about them doing it after_ holiday. - guardian, about them doing it after holiday. yes. after every bank holiday. yes. ieieniieiiw— after every bank holiday. yes. potentially _the - after every bank holiday. yes. potentially the next potentially up to the next eieeiien. — potentially up to the next election. -well,- potentially up to the next election. well, if that is, election. yes well, if that is, it election. yes well, if that is, n eee— election. yes well, if that is, n ke— election. yes well, if that is, it seems to be— election. yes well, if that is, it seems to be there. �*" it seems to be there. if that inni— it seems to be there. if that isn't political, i don't know what is. and you i mean, playing with lives is not again with people's lives is not again , something that any politician would should be allowed to do . would should be allowed to do. and so the unions doing this, it's absolutely shocking . yeah. it's absolutely shocking. yeah. and they are driving this. and i wonder how many of the junior doctors have a real desire to strike as much as they're talking about. why isn't the neeiin— talking about. why isn't the health secretary,— g why isn't the health secretary, though, on the einwewee— health secretary, though, on the einwewee if— health secretary, though, on the einwewee ii wen— health secretary, though, on the airwaves, if you were advising inene— airwaves, if you were advising them? because— airwaves, if you were advising them? because there is this gene— them? because there is this eeiiew-kieni — them? because there is this policy-rishi has- them? because there is this policy rishi has introduced policy that rishi has introduced lieeen-i— policy that rishi has introduced ,.doesn't want— policy that rishi has introduced , doesn't want ministers , he doesn't want his ministers

most of us in the media here, do we think that joe biden will be the difference? probably not listing dougie because , of listing dougie because, of course, back in when this northern ireland agreement was signed, blair was prime minister and bill clinton, who was president united states, president of the united states, was instrumental figure was a hugely instrumental figure in that peace process. it seems now that biden— in that peace process. it seems now that biden hasn't- a t t it seems now that biden hasn't got the ciinien— now that biden hasn't got the clinton magic— now that biden hasn't got the clinton magic no— now that biden hasn't got the clinton magic no , definitely clinton magic no, definitely ner. — clinton magic no, definitely ner. inie— clinton magic no, definitely not. this morning- clinton magic no, definitely not. this morning i- clinton magic no, definitely not. " g clinton magic no, definitely- not. this morning i was standing outside the city hall reporting in the breakfast, and i remember there was over 100,000 people actually right down that donegall street , right out donegall street, right out around that whole area , came to around that whole area, came to see bill clinton . he brought see bill clinton. he brought a magic with him. but at that time as well, you've got to remember that northern ireland was is incredibly a different place. i mean, as a young as a young member of the media, i remember walking into high street just across over there and the ira had a royal mail van , put a had a royal mail van, put a wheelie bin into the back with a bomb. and i had just walked through the cordon. when it went

off, i actually felt the shockwaves go through me. the camera tip actually bounced off. that's how much of an explosion an it was. i mean, they were calm an occurrences week in, week out. we're not there . bill week out. we're not there. bill clinton took a lot to do with that and put it put us on a path and a lot of this inaya government that is behind us here now obviously came from that, tony blair definitely. it was one of his better it is probably his legacy. there was things that did go wrong, like the letters of comfort and so forth that has kept legacy from being finished in northern ireland, and that keeps coming back to haunt us. time and time again. and it was funny in that interview with arlene foster last week, bertie ahern had pointed out to those two things the legacy and decommissioning that should have been sorted out at time. do you think we're at the time. do you think we're going to hear something? do you just do you we're just fine? do you think we're going— just fine? do you think we're geing ie— just fine? do you think we're geing re neer— just fine? do you think we're going to hear much from tony nieir— going to hear much from tony nieir in— going to hear much from tony nieir in ine— going to hear much from tony blair in the next— going to hear much from tony blair in the next couple of ieyee— blair in the next couple of eeyee war,— blair in the next couple of days? well, probably will. days? well, we probably will. nee—rew- days? well, we probably will. i eer—ieny nieir but if you remember, tony blair did that the protocol and did say that the protocol and the agreement

the good friday agreement couldn't in the same couldn't exist in the same space. and i don't think he can really back from that. and he really go back from that. and he was for all of the things that people would have about people would have said about tony blair, is still greatly tony blair, he is still greatly respected northern ireland respected in northern ireland because what went here and because of what went on here and because of what went on here and because exactly where because of exactly where i'm standing moment. mean, standing at the moment. i mean, the foreign visitors the amount of foreign visitors here in northern ireland, even as stand here, people walking here in northern ireland, even as syoui here, people walking here in northern ireland, even as syou would people walking here in northern ireland, even as syou would nevere walking here in northern ireland, even as syou would never havezing past, you would never have thought it 25 years ago. but yes, i expect him to get involved within the next few days. all right . that's dougie days. all right. that's dougie benne— days. all right. that's dougie beattie, northern— : g that's dougie beattie, northern ireland correspondent. belfast is a greei— correspondent. belfast is a greer ery— correspondent. belfast is a great city. now,— correspondent. belfast is a great city. now, i don't know if yeve— great city. now, i don't know if yeve eeen— great city. now, i don't know if you've been and— great city. now, i don't know if you've been and the titanic ekniieiiien— you've been and the titanic exhibition is— you've been and the titanic exhibition is fantastic on my to do exhibition is fantastic on my to ie iier— exhibition is fantastic on my to ie iiei . — exhibition is fantastic on my to ie iiei . ii— exhibition is fantastic on my to do list. i'd love— exhibition is fantastic on my to do list. i'd love to- exhibition is fantastic on my to do list . »: g»s» do list. i'd love to go. as i said , my dad was working out said, my dad was working out there during the troubles, driving lorries around and it was risky job. very much so listening, especially with an engush , listening, especially with an english , listening to english accent, listening to draghi similar story. draghi just then similar story. my draghi just then similar story. my dad had literally just i think it was a woolworths store might be wrong. i've talked to my i think it was a my mum but i think it was a woolworths and dad had woolworths store and my dad had literally walked out of it

literally just walked out of it and that was blown up. so i mean, thoughts with the mean, thoughts with all the people northern that people in northern ireland that we back to those times we don't go back to those times and the petrol bombs overnight. we don't go back to those times andjust petrol bombs overnight. we don't go back to those times andjust terrifying. 1bs overnight. we don't go back to those times andjust terrifying. 1bs cthere]ht. it's just terrifying. and there was year old girl the other was a 12 year old girl the other day up by another gang of day beaten up by another gang of 12 girls, sectarian, an 12 year old girls, sectarian, an attack on a 12 year old. we can't back there. this has to can't go back there. this has to work. remember that when work. i can remember that when the went omagh , 28, the bomb went off in omagh, 28, killed that really was the killed and that really was the final thing that did it, 3500 people their lives in the people lost their lives in the troubles interesting, troubles. and interesting, there's generation of peace there's a generation of peace babies who are too young to babies now who are too young to remember the troubles and the real horrors of what happened . real horrors of what happened. absolutely. are more absolutely. and they are more worried about cost of worried about the cost of living. well are you worried about living? well, yeah, absolutely . and you just hope absolutely. and you just hope that, you know, ordinary people are getting anything done are not getting anything done because stormont hasn't suffered, two years suffered, what, nearly two years now? yeah .uk you made the now? yeah. yeah .uk you made the reini— now? yeah. yeah .uk you made the eeini, or— now? yeah. yeah .uk you made the point or eewree— now? yeah. yeah .uk you made the point, of course. five— 7 i/rs;ci a i/»s;ci a .uk you made the point, of course. five years ege. — point, of course. five years ege. we,— point, of course. five years ege. we, eerry— point, of course. five years ago. no, sorry. in- point, of course. five years ago. no, sorry. in 2020 when it wee-wnen— ago. no, sorry. in 2020 when it wee-wnen-inei was whatever, when it was the son.— was whatever, when it was the 20th anniversary,— was whatever, when it was the 20th anniversary, was sinn 20th anniversary, it was sinn rein— 20th anniversary, it was sinn rein wne— 20th anniversary, it was sinn fein who weren't— 20th anniversary, it was sinn fein who weren't involved. yes, i fein who weren't involved. yes, i knew. — fein who weren't involved. yes, i knew. iney— fein who weren't involved. yes, i know. they take— fein who weren't involved. yes, i know. they take it in turns. ire— i know. they take it in turns. in e— i know. they take it in turns. in e reeiiy— i know. they take it in turns. it's a really hard— i know. they take it in turns. it's a really hard-to- i know. they take it in turns. it's a really hard-to sort. it's a really hard one to sort out, isn't it? hopefully

' ascyr would be enraged. absolutely. inie— would be enraged. absolutely. this is unprecedented . and this is unprecedented. and general sir mike jackson is, of course, would have had many meetings with the monarch, all of which would have been because she's commander chief, she's commander in chief, secret. commander in secret. she was commander in chief. have been privy chief. she would have been privy to all information that mi6 had and the british that and m15, the british army, that she been across all she would have been across all the details . so she would have the details. so she would have known just how dangerous perhaps afghanistan was for all soldiers serving in the british army at

that time. but she said and this is the quote, according to sir mike jackson, must do their mike jackson, they must do their duty. and wasn't queen elizabeth ii just the symbol of duty? so yes, that is why she wanted her two grandsons to do their duty and fight, because, of course , and fight, because, of course, they were both in the army. william was commissioned as an army officer in 2006. household cavalry , 2008. we know , of cavalry, 2008. we know, of course, that prince harry fought two tours of afghanistan as he speaks at length in his memoir spare killing 25 taliban fighters , referring to them as fighters, referring to them as chess pieces. et cetera, which is clearly caused some controversy. but the decision was taken that because prince william was heir to the throne, it was simply too dangerous for him to serve in afghanistan. on the frontline, he did make a very secret three hour visit, according to clarence house, back then, back in 2008, to visit afghanistan. but in terms of serving on the frontline as it was deemed too dangerous, unlike for prince harry, where it that the risk was

it was seen that the risk was acceptable. but it's not the first time the heir to the throne, you know, couldn't serve on the front line. charles was when he was prince of wales , was when he was prince of wales, was not allowed to serve on the front line of the falcons war. so it's not unprecedented. george chennai six also wanted to george chennai six also wanted re rein— george chennai six also wanted re iein ine— george chennai six also wanted to join the normandy landings. but-churchill- to join the normandy landings. but churchill absolutely but winston churchill absolutely eeie—geing— said that is not going to neeeen. — said that is not going to neeeen. lwee- said that is not going to happen. was he said that is not going to. happen. .was-he was said that is not going to- happen. .was-he was our happen. he was the he was our king—wen— happen. he was the he was our king—wen er- happen. he was the he was our king war, of course. king during the war, of course. kni— king during the war, of course. ann—i- king during the war, of course. ann—i ininkl and so but because i think eeerge— and so but because i think eeerge ine— and so but because i think george the fifth was involved eni— george the fifth was involved ene reveri— george the fifth was involved and edward the— george the fifth was involved and edward the eighth was inveivei— and edward the eighth was involved-the— and edward the eighth was involved the first world war involved in the first world war involved in the first world war in-rern. — involved in the first world war in-rern. .new- involved in the first world war in _form.-how will. involved in the first world war in form. how will this in some form. but how will this play— in some form. but how will this eiey wiin— in some form. but how will this eiey win new— in some form. but how will this eiey wirn nerry in— in some form. but how will this play with harry in california ? play with harry in california? are we— play with harry in california? are we geing— play with harry in california? are we going to— play with harry in california? are we going to get more ewreewing— are we going to get more outpouring of— are we going to get more outpouring of victims? even my greninerner— outpouring of victims? even my grandmother thought i was dispensable— grandmother thought i was dispensable brother dispensable and my brother weeni— dispensable and my brother weeni .— dispensable and my brother wasn't . right. _ dispensable and my brother wasn't . right. dispensable and my brother- wasn't . right. _that is the wasn't. right. well, that is the point that he makes in his book spare, isn't it? of course, he talks about that he was talks about the fact that he was always second fiddle, i always the second fiddle, i suppose, brother william, suppose, to his brother william, that was allowed to take the that he was allowed to take the risk and his brother wasn't allowed to take the risk. but i mean, i have to ask the question, if prince harry wasn't allowed to serve in afghanistan, i can very much see a situation

where he was essentially perhaps complaining in his complaining about that in his book, saying he wasn't that book, saying that he wasn't that he wasn't allowed to do his duty, he wasn't allowed to be just plain old harry as he he refers to himself in the book. he wanted to be an ordinary person. he was very, very disappointed when he was pulled out of the first tour of afghanistan, due to the media embargo being broken . there was embargo being broken. there was a the not by us, by— embargo being broken. there was a the not by us, by the— d ag a there was a the not by us, by the way, by ii— a the not by us, by the way, by n e— a the not by us, by the way, by n in— a the not by us, by the way, by us. it was in australia. it was yeen— us. it was in australia. it was yeen ir— us. it was in australia. it was yeen, ire — us. it was in australia. it was yeah, it was. it— us. it was in australia. it was yeah, it was. c “»s;s c yeah, it was. it was. yes, it was a foreign publication which gave it away that prince harry was serving on the front line. it to be secret, but it was meant to be secret, but for his safety he was pulled out. but as we've said , it is out. but as we've said, it is to, you know, to it is too dangerous, perhaps for the heir to the throne to serve on the front line. i think it's not inie— front line. i think it's not we eiery— front line. i think it's not we erery ie— front line. i think it's not this story is front- c i think it's not this story is front page of the sun:— this story is front page of the sun by— this story is front page of the sun by ine— this story is front page of the s... by rne wey. — this story is front page of the sun, by the way. i— this story is front page of the sun, by the way. i don't think inie— sun, by the way. i don't think inie erery— sun, by the way. i don't think inie erery ie— sun, by the way. i don't think inie erery ie e— sun, by the way. i don't think this story is a huge shock that wiiiien — this story is a huge shock that william wasn't— this story is a huge shock that william wasn't allowed to go ieee— william wasn't allowed to go ieee ine— william wasn't allowed to go because the risk— william wasn't allowed to go because the risk was huge. i yew knew,— because the risk was huge. i mean, you know, the risk with henry— mean, you know, the risk with nerry ee— mean, you know, the risk with henry nege,— mean, you know, the risk with harry was huge, you know, but inere-e—wirn- there's the precedent with andrew— there's the precedent with andrew andrew there's the precedent with -
