irish prime minister in brussels who has a photograph of a bombed customs post lamenting that any border between northern ireland and the republic of ireland was unworkable, it was a breach of the belfast agreement, , and can result in such troubles again. the hypocrisy of the irish government from such a position has not been lost with the irish police now tasked to patrol the border, protect from the unsubstantiated come unfounded 80% figure of asylum-seekers who supposedly make their way to the republic of ireland from the uk via norther ireland when actually the reverse is true. will the prime minister challenge and call out these actions and confirm what representations he has made to the irish prime minister and the justice minister to respect the integrity of the house -- >> the house and be aware we have made commitments to avoid a hard border on island of ireland. the honorable lady makes a very important point that the irish government must uphold its promises. we kind of cherry picking of important international agreements, and so the secretary of state, so the secretary of state is a seeking urgent clarification that

aiken frank aiken, who was the censor chief in the republic of ireland. that republic of ireland was a neutral country, also had very strict rules. is it a catholic country? so the censors were meant to remove books which were in that general tendency. so most the british main publishers fell foul of this at some. but frank aiken was a member of. the edmund de villiers v in a foyle party, many of whom, if not german sympathy abuses, were distinctly anti british. so he had to very difficult balancing act to maintain neutrality. so he put people like frank king into high sounding jobs with probably weren't all that important. so he the chief censor and this meant that the irish times had to send all its book reviews to frank and many of them were disallowed or butchered. and this was particularly the case with this book by john of the biggles books, and this is his female hero created the for the war time quarrels of the wife and this came back completely disallowed so the very pro-british of the times are in smiley biding his time and then submitted exactly

but of course, we've been covering this for the last two years in the republic of ireland. self is just about to get underway. and with me is head of the irish freedom party, herman kelly. herman, tell us a little bit about what's happening today. there should be was well over 3000 people here. >> by the time it gets down to the destination of customs house. the last time there was between five and 7000. a very clear message, one that ireland is full, two, that you should host the irish. irish first. and actually an unusual chant for a crowd of thousands of people flying irish tricolours was that sinn fein or traitors? that's a new thing for irish politics. it's very new. if that would never have happened. two years ago. so people now have the confidence. i think sinn fein have been exposed as an open borders mass immigration party, and now that leaves room for a nationalist party like the irish freedom party, which believes in democratic self—determination for the irish people, which they haven't pressed . they believe in haven't pressed. they believe in the eu membership,

and actually, in mid—march of the meeting we had with the republic of ireland ministers, in those minutesyou can see that the chief medical officer, our chief medical officer, is saying that he felt that the peak was around 1a weeks from there. so wrongly and i say absolutely wrongly, we felt that we had time and we didn't have time. and that's a source of great regret. let's speak to our ireland correspondent, sarah girvin, who is in belfast. another big morning at the inquiry and the former first minister rejecting suggestions the northern ireland executive "sleepwalked" into the pandemic. yes, she absolutely did. over the last three weeks, that is how long the uk covert inquiry has been sitting here in belfast. we have heard a lot of talk about political dysfunction and how much that affected the decision made in northern ireland dealing with a pandemic. just remind you why that was the case, the executive, here in northern ireland, the devolved government, it hadn't been sitting for three years in the build—up to the pandemic. it had collapsed and was only up and going again for a mat

voluntarily, and others were rounded up in an immigration raid and in the meantime , the republic of meantime, the republic of irelandared the uk an unsafe country because of rwanda, found themselves in a bind as migrants from northern ireland crossed the border to avoid a possible rwanda draft and as the republic have declared the uk unsafe , they're declared the uk unsafe, they're now unable to give the migrants back. you couldn't make it up. and then in big news this week, we've had a by—election in blackpool in scott benton's old seat. 107 council elections, 11 mayoral contestants and loads of different local elections, 37 police and crime commissioner elections across england and wales. boris turned up to vote. he showed up without any id , he showed up without any id, police, this is quite hilarious, really, because he was actually his policy, about id so that's interesting . he didn't show up interesting. he didn't show up with it. and the tories have seen a drubbing at local level, but managed to keep hold of a few mayors. labour has seen huge gains all around, and it'll be interesting to see what evolves. th

they decided they wouldn't fly people to rwanda from the republic of ireland. sequence of that. yesterday, justice humphreys said the same would now apply to northern ireland, prompting the obvious conclusion that asylum seekers would also flood to belfast as well as dublin. people in county down telling us they were furious about this. they weren't consulted, they didn't vote for this and they didn't want anything to do with it on that, tam says this the british government are spineless. they won't stand up to the courts or the eu. and dennis says this, so far as i understand by the judge ruling that illegals cannot be sent to rwanda from ireland, that in fact he's just given the green light for all illegal immigrants to leave the rest of the uk go to ireland or northern ireland and they will still be safe. so we should be seeing an exodus of illegals . am i missing exodus of illegals. am i missing something? dennis? i don't think you are . i think that would be you are. i think that would be the consequence and i just sometimes wonder if politicians have thoug

ambassadors in israel, ambassadors, were summoned for a conversation today. three countries of the republic of ireland and the kingdom of norway, because their, well, these are not states, these are two kingdoms, there is one republic, the states recognized this, well, and the state, i mean the form of government of the republic and the kingdom, but those states, well speaking in general, they recognized the palestinian state, which is interesting that several more countries of the european union also aim to recognize the palestinian state, and so they were summoned for a conversation, please explain what is happening, what these conversations can lead to. why these recognitions are happening, i 'm not saying to give an assessment now, i'm talking about the fact, how it should develop further, how it can affect, first of all, a hot situation, where it's hot right now, meaning the confrontation in the territory of israel, between israel and hamas, well, there are probably already clear explanations from the representatives of these four corners of the three countries. will indeed be the next countries

for the first time, the british government gave the republic of ireland the right to vote in the governanceof northern ireland. the agreement was an attempt to improve security cooperation between great britain and. ireland and give some recognition to the political views of catholics in northern ireland. the deal failed to immediately end political violence in northern ireland. the coalition government envisaged in the agreement never became a reality for many years. however, the deal improved cooperation between the british and irish governments, which was key to the good friday agreement 12 years later. personally. the friendship between president ronald reagan and margaret thatcher has often been described as an ideological kindred spirit. they shared a philosophy of free markets, low taxes, limited government intervention, and strong defense. in 1982, thatcher and reagan agreed to replace the british navy's polaris missiles with american trident missiles. reagan became the second foreign leader to address both chambers parliament regan. supported the falklands war and approved the supp

from the north now when they say that the north now when they say that the benefits in the republic of irelandey are in the uk, no they're not. the benefits in the uk are much, much better, which is one of the reasons why there's a problem with unification. so i think at the moment one sliver of good news about this is that that thing which we saw today, i think it's in ballsbridge and various other parts of dublin, was actually very peaceful. and it's not often that you can get thousands of people protesting on the streets of a european city, and you don't actually see violence. so let's get this sorted out and discuss. it rationally. but at the moment, i think, as everybody is saying, there isn't an obvious party, even though in the iraq test you have about 11 or 12 independents at the present time, so that could be a sign for the future. >> lord moylan, what's your take on this today? >> well, first of all, i think it's ridiculous to move from a demonstration which everyone has described as being full of ordinary working class and middle class people. and stephen starts talking about fascis

we've seen that in the case of northern ireland and the repubuc case of northern ireland and the republicand, you know, people are trying to get out of it and the fact of the matter is it and the fact of the matter is it may be expensive and you rightly point that out, is an extremely costly endeavour. but nigel, we are paying about £7 million a day for hotel bills . million a day for hotel bills. no, and that cost will be recouped, you know, may cost , recouped, you know, may cost, you have to look at the whole picture, you know, may cost 100 million, may cost 200 million. but that cost will be very quickly recouped. and you only have to execute the scheme, you know, literally for a matter of weeks before the, you know, nobody will be willing to pay people smugglers , you know, 5 to people smugglers, you know, 5 to ,15,000 to come across the logic of that. i completely get, i >> azeem, i completely get, i fear that our judges and the european court of human rights will stop it from happening. we'll see. but just very quickly, also under the rwanda package , we also have to take package,

ireland. one of them i spoke to was far away from cork, on the other one from monaghan town. so that's north on the very south of the republiceel that the government has let them down with the amount of immigrants that have come to in dublin over the past. while term we spoke about, rishi sunak being blamed because of his rwanda policy. in fact, one of the politicians that spoke to me here said, well, we would like to say to rishi sunak, if he has any more room on those planes leaving, please land in dubun planes leaving, please land in dublin and pick up a few from here as well. so you can see with the thoughts of those that are standing for european parliament here are really going. they're fed up with european laws coming in, many of them saying to me that the irish doyle has become nothing more than a regional government, the same as the northern ireland assembly , the welsh assembly, assembly, the welsh assembly, the scottish assembly. they're saying that they are all answerable to europe. so the feeling of against europe here at this moment in time , because at this moment in time, because of these type of policies tha

island, actually a lot of you are, well, not too impressed with the idea of migrants who have got from northern ireland to the republicm. so on that, let's discuss that story then. the uk has offered the republic of ireland the chance to get involved in the rwanda scheme, amid a growing row between those our two countries over asylum seeker return . is the prime minister return. is the prime minister made clear that the united kingdom will not, that is, will not accept migrants from ireland that follows a rise in migrant tent cities in dublin. for our radio listeners, we've just got scenes of these tents stacked outside of places. i heard that there were some tents being set outside of schools, which, if i was a parent, would not please me one iota. the irish police have set about dismantling these tents. well, joining me now to discuss this is the president of the conservative primrose league , henry bolton, and journalist and broadcaster benjamin butterworth . i mean, henry, it's butterworth. i mean, henry, it's pretty inevitable that this will impact britain . i know they've impact britain. i know they've left brit

>> you can't have a hard border on the island of ireland , or can on the island of ireland, or can you? but hang on. >> the republicst a few weeks ago were suggesting, because the northern ireland, they said, that all these 80, 80% of all their illegal immigrants were coming from northern ireland, which i actually don't accept because they were worried about being sent to rwanda. we're saying you know, we'll have to have checks. so, you know, if you can have checks for people crossing the frontier, which is obviously that's their decision. it's a foreign country. it's not it's not part of the united kingdom. and yet they want to put checks on a tiny amount of trade that goes into the eu via northern ireland. absolutely scandalous. and tomorrow in the house of lords, we're going to have the third reading of the animal exports, banning animal exports. again, not applying to northern ireland because we've been left under european union law. and i think all those people who voted to leave the european union, including those in northern ireland, yes, admittedly not a majority need to realise that they haven't actually l

why don't we send them to the republic of ireland? ights, and therefore any asylum seeker in ireland is entitled to stay there. so they'd be much cheaper than sending people to rwanda. we'll just give them a free ticket to the border in northern ireland. so off you go, i don't think that rwanda is a big deal, actually. >> but i do think it's better than nothing. >> yeah, and labour's answer is better bureaucracy. >> well, i wouldn't give much for its chances. >> you know, all governments say they're going to cut red tape and run things better than their predecessors, but it never works. >> of course, it's not. it's not a bureaucratic problem. >> the problem is these people should just be turned back at the border, shouldn't they? and we should return them to france, whence they come, and then leave it to the french to sort it out. of course, the irish have now discovered that the schengen, although they're not part of it, rules , have been a disaster for rules, have been a disaster for europe and france won't take asylum seekers back f

career pounding the streets of northern ireland, i can tell you a united ireland will never happen. paul adds this united ireland will require major changes in the republiche irish in the repubuc percentage of the irish in the republic would refuse to change their flag and their national anthem to accommodate northern ireland into an all ireland state, and ian quickly adds this i was born and live in northern ireland, plus born british and british is how i wish to remain. huge amount of comments coming in there, please send them in. and of course anything else we're talking about in the show, get those views coming in now. defence secretary grant shapps is about to make a major statement about a huge data breach affecting british army personnel. as many as 270,000 were impacted. would he blame china for that cyber attack? we were crossing live to the house of commons to hear the defence secretary, grant shapps on that soon. i'm martin daubney on gb news. britain's news channel. now it's time for your weather andifs now it's time for your weather and it's alex . burr. and it's alex. burr. >> with a brighter outlook, with boxt solar sponsors of weather on

other seats on the border because of what is going on in the republic of ireland over immigration andswell of, problems against it, it would be interesting to see how sinn fein does in those border areas, and some of the unionist parties, even the likes of reform, actually take those seats in there, because some of those were only got by 20 or 30 votes so far . those were only got by 20 or 30 votes so far. for once in decades and decades, maybe generations. we may see elections come forward and people starting to vote on real issues that are not to do with green and orange, but more to do with how the country is run. but at the very back of it, it is bad timing for northern ireland because our school holidays start on the 30th of june and quite a few people leave northern ireland from that time to about the third week in july, because holidays are cheaper, because holidays are cheaper, because the english holidays haven't started yet. >> it's a really fascinating dynamic. and of course, dougie , dynamic. and of course, dougie, if the conservatives are successful in turning this into a

suits the irish government to claim that its uk policy causing an influx of migrants to the republic of irelandat may not be actually the case. >> well, it's a political standoff. technically and, i there's been growing sentiment in ireland . we've seen, a lot of in ireland. we've seen, a lot of people doing marches against anti immigration and sort of irish, pushback from the irish people that we don't want immigrants . however, people that we don't want immigrants. however, ireland is part of the eu. it will have to process asylum seekers that land on its shores. now ireland seems to be blaming the uk as why are you letting these people cross the border from northern ireland? and it's interesting as to how an asylum seeker gets to northern ireland in the first place, because they all land at the kent coast that we know. so how are they actually getting off, from, you know, ferries to northern ireland in the first place or via planes or, you know, which way that needs to be investigated. once again, that's a lack of security on our part, because if people are coming, if people are going to nor
