unionists and nationalists have to agree to share power together and at the moment the biggest unionist partye the way for the dup to return to power here. for that reason the dup will not explicitly endorsing either candidate have been hinting they would prefer liz truss to be in the top job. would prefer liz truss to be in the topjob. nationalist parties broadly support the protocol as a means of managing brexit, and again while they haven't put their foot in one camp or the other, you would imagine they might have preferred rishi sunak is someone who in their view would have adopted a less confrontational approach with the eu and been more likely to pursue and get a negotiated settlement. all of this doesn'tjust get a negotiated settlement. all of this doesn't just affect get a negotiated settlement. all of this doesn'tjust affect northern ireland, so i think key to the coming days as far as people here goes will be the speed at which the new prime minister will engage with the leaders of the five main political parties here, and also how soon they will speak to the prime minister in dubli

there's a stalemate that has seen a breakdown of a power sharing agreement between unionist and nationalist parties. is there anything the king can do regarding this? >> i don't think so. the british monarch has to be apolitical. that goes with the job. it's a constitutional monarchy. i really don't think as tempting as it might seem, we have talked on other days about independence movements in different parts of the world and that kind of thing. to be honest, this monarch doesn't interfere in politics. he can influence people's emotions possibly. he can make the british monarchy seem more or less appealing by his actions. but the problems of northern ireland, the real ones that you're referring to over the protocol with brexit can only be solved by the politicians. that isn't a job for king charles. what he can do as his mother did is wherever possible, bring about reconciliation. we talked about there in 2014 when charles visited, which was where he was killed. he was blown up in a boat. charles gave a very, very moving speech there talking about his own personal suffering and how he recognized t

so unionist parties who wants to keep northern ireland in the uk are already saying, these statisticso still want northern ireland to remain in the union, it simply doesn't equip that if you are catholic you will want a united ireland. but however there are others who will say that this is evidence of a continuing demographic trend which has been under way for decades now, and the outcome of that will eventually be a referendum on irish unity, as is allowed for in the peace deal which was signed in 1998 after three decades of conflict. and that referendum will be winnable within the next ten years, for example, that is what the main irish nationalist party in northern ireland sinn fein says. there will be lots of debate about how this plays into the constitutional question, expect lots of number crunching and discussion about this in the days and years ahead. . ~ about this in the days and years ahead. ., ~' ,, , . the uk's health secretary, therese coffey, is setting out measures to address the pressures facing the nhs in england over the winter period. she will pledge today to make
