dougie. >> very turn your dougie. >> very turn your dougie. >> sorry, i've got to go because the callture for you, friend. the moment. you, my friend. for the moment. thank you. >> from northern >> let's go from northern ireland. across to north ireland. hop across to north wales, where jack carson is standing by for us. what's the picture like? where you are ? picture like? where you are? >> yeah, well, certainly in the last hour since we last spoke , last hour since we last spoke, the wind has really picked up here. that yellow warning from the met office for wind in in parts of south wales and north wales not coming in until around parts of south wales and north w12:00 ot coming in until around parts of south wales and north w12:00 today, ing in until around parts of south wales and north w12:00 today, ing already around 11 12:00 today, but already across here at the sea front in porthcawl . it is already really porthcawl. it is already really whipping up . porthcawl. it is already really whipping up. now we're at porthcawl. it is already really whipping up . now we're at low whipp

beattie o dougie.e, but all mainly from the public sector and absolutely no police in riot gear whatsoever. no tactical support groups are here. they were here last night for the anti—immigration protesters that in fact, it was shocking how many of them that actually were with snatch, land rovers, etc. and they were stopping and searching some of those protesters on the way in to the area. and what we are now seeing is the public sector. many of the trade unions having this, protest behind us, and an awful amount of palestinian flags, gay pride flags, and amazingly , on pride flags, and amazingly, on friday i seen flags of the nuj, the national union of journalism, where we're meant to be, very, just straight down the middle on this. it was quite , middle on this. it was quite, quite disturbing to me to see that. but these are people who live in middle class areas and as yet have not seen illegal immigration. and it's very, very important that we stress this down. people in northern ireland and the rep

dougie and dougie . honestly, dougie and dougie. and it's a big reaction in the republic of ireland because, i mean, the people here are basically saying we've had enough. you're not listening to us. we haven't got the infrastructure for this. i mean, the population here has grown so much in the last decade . grown so much in the last decade. and now one fifth of ireland's population, no longer identify as irish. and of course, this is as irish. and of course, this is a small island with its infrastructure. it has good roads and stuff. but i mean, it's actual schools , hospitals, it's actual schools, hospitals, rail networks cannot take that sudden growth. and people are very, very worried about what's going on. and i think it was george orwell that first said democracy is the ability to tell people what they don't want to hear and politicians here don't want to seem to be telling the people or listening to them. and it's going right across ireland . it's going right across ireland. in fact, with me now is a guest, michelle keane, a
