of that. the reason why ireland and my taoiseach leader has a role to play in relation to the north of irelandood friday agreement. i mean, all governments have a role to play in this, because northern ireland is a unique entity. we have fired violence that i mentioned through my own childhood. we have had piece for 20 years. we have tried to build bridges between communities that, in a way, were very divided. and, sadly, because of brexit those divisions are beginning again. it very clear, just on the united ireland, that can only happen with the will of the people of northern ireland. and the island of ireland. it is not on the agenda now whatsoever, and i think to make it... again, the conservative and unionist politicians i talk of feel that it is being put on the agenda in ireland. let me quote to you marylou mcdonald, just today, the leader of sinn fein, she said that if there is an no—deal brexit, as far as she is concerned, the damage will be so severe to all the people of ireland, "we will not stand idly by, there will have to be a border — a cross—border poll on unification." but it

agreement are mutually incompatible you cannot have brags that you cannot have a forcing of the north of ireland of the european union on the one hand and still claim to honor in word and spares and lesser the good friday agreement is in our view as stark as the last and i listened to theresa may and i listened to others from the english tories saying. don't worry about the border in ireland ireland will be fine on the one hand and then insisting that britain will leave the customs union leave to single marcus and so on and of course the reality is that those two positions are completely as odds with each other i think the tories have played a very dangerous game no way can our and or should darren and or will argument be the collateral damage in the midst of all of the us. the idea of reimposing a border on the island is not just economically disruptive it's potentially jeopardizes the entire political infrastructure of the good friday agreement the executive itself in the north the assembly the northern institutions are built on our premised on the notion of european standards and regulations

may could sell at home because there's many people in the in the huge cape particularly in the north of ireland who do not like to see the backstop come into play all right she could sell that home but it seems like this concept of extending this period is triggering some backlash at home. well if there is i may need any a reminder of the pressure that she is at home she definitely got this as a reaction on this latest proposals one directed leaning paper was screaming another year in limbo and the brics it is and how parties are fearing that it could you know extend indefinitely but even the remaining us are saying well is this not maybe a matter of principle what really would and nothing here bring can this problem then really be so if we be paying and we don't have enough to pay for a public service is there all this money extra money going to brussels is that really worth it or you know there is still optimism that we hearing from some e.u. leaders but what do you think the chances are that we will see a no deal on braggs that. the chances that there will be no deal and increase practically

to the north of the front some decent sunshine for scotland and northern ireland. arts of the uk starting off rather grey. this is friday afternoon, bright conditions for scotland, a few showers in the north—west. it should stay dry in northern ireland with some sunshine. cloudy and dumb for north england and north wales, mist and fog clearing in the south—east of sunshine. with sunshine, temperatures up to 22 celsius towards the south—east. quite a contrast further north where temperatures are a good 5 degrees lower than those we‘ll see this afternoon across scotland and northern ireland. the weekend weather prospects, for england and wales, low pressure is close by. that will bring wet and windy weather with the rain really quite slow moving as it works into east anglia and southern counties of england through the afternoon. the north and west, scotland, northern ireland, north of england and north wales, a decent date with spells of sunshine but quite chilly and the second half of the weekend, the raval clear away, some sunshine for most of us but the weather wil

of the good friday agreement, there can be no return to a hard border on the the island of ireland and that the northand and that the north of ireland will be protected. those in the north can't claim to be irish, and british at the same time. those commitments were made clear in december in march and in may. that commitment has been given many times and we are not asking for anything that hasn't been committed to. what we wa nt that hasn't been committed to. what we want to make sure is that moving forward , we want to make sure is that moving forward, we can find a solution to the commitments that have been given and that we can hopefully address any of the northern ireland border issues through the future relationship. that the phrase this question in a different way. we know the british side has the commitments with the wto, but the pressure could build within europe to check goods that were leaving ireland from the european mainland. that is what is at stake for the irish government. we are looking at an international peace treaty in terms of the good friday agreement. the reason that we haveis
