:01:16.:01:21.

has become known as a time of tension and trouble. Today,

:01:21.:01:25.

loyalists have been taking part in parades but last night they were

:01:25.:01:29.

trying to stop a march by republicans. What started as an

:01:29.:01:33.

evening of useful protests ended in several hours of violence right in

exposing divisions that still run deep in some parts of this city.

:01:43.:01:48.

Loyalists had blocked the route ahead of the republican parade and

:01:48.:01:53.

when police tried to move them, there were angry clashes. Bottles

:01:54.:01:57.

and bricks were used as makeshift weapons as rioters attacked the

:01:57.:02:02.

police. There were many injured in the running battles including dozens

:02:02.:02:07.

of police officers. There is no excuse for the violence we saw on

the streets of Belfast last night. To have TV screens filled with

:02:12.:02:17.

street disorder again today, it is a real step backwards. This is where

will work as hard as we can to make sure that takes place. Northern

Ireland's past still haunts its present. The peace process has

changed life here but old problems continue to cause trouble.

:03:09.:03:12.

A wave of car bombings today in the Iraqi capital Baghdad has killed at

:03:12.:03:15.

least 33 people and injured 140. The deadliest attack happened near an

Association, Greg Dyke, says it will be impossible to play the 2022 World

:03:58.:04:03.

raised around the world about a tournament there in the summer heat.

:04:03.:04:06.

The Football Association has been celebrating its 150th anniversary

today with events all over England. It is a competition another nine

heat, queue up in boiling heat? I don't think you can and I think

everybody in football is beginning to realise that you can't let it go

:04:31.:04:35.

or another place. Crystal Palace fans were watching their team play a

:04:36.:04:41.

friendly match ahead of next week's Premier League kick-off. The season

:04:41.:04:45.

in 2022 would look very different if it had to be halted for ten weeks.

:04:45.:04:49.

The Premier League say that a winter World Cup would result in chaos,

:04:49.:04:52.

claiming three years worth of fixtures would be affected. And the

:04:52.:04:56.

fans seem to agree. The vast majority are against any change to

:04:56.:05:01.

the schedules. Would not be happy at all, keep it where it is. Don't

:05:06.:05:10.

so much kudos, I don't see how they would be able to break away and send

players over there. Why should the rest of the world have to comply

:05:15.:05:21.

with Qatar? The chances of a tournament being moved away from
