Now on BBC One, it's time for the news where | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
is all from us. Do not forget there is a first look at the papers | :00:00. | :00:12. | |
The Orange Order has called for any protests against yesterday's Parades | :00:13. | :00:14. | |
Members met unionist politicians including the First Minister | :00:15. | :00:17. | |
Earlier the DUP said loyalist paramilitaries have promised not to | :00:18. | :00:21. | |
use violence in any protests against the ruling which bars | :00:22. | :00:24. | |
an Orange Order parade from passing Ardoyne shop fronts on the Twelfth. | :00:25. | :00:27. | |
Our political correspondent Martina Purdy reports. | :00:28. | :00:32. | |
The DUP says it does not want a repeat of scenes like these from | :00:33. | :00:40. | |
North Belfast during last year's 12 protest. It has insisted that those | :00:41. | :00:44. | |
with influence amongst the Loyalist paramilitaries have made a | :00:45. | :00:48. | |
commitment to nonviolence this year. The party says violence is in | :00:49. | :00:54. | |
nobody's interest. We can only seek to use our influence. We are not in | :00:55. | :00:58. | |
a position to direct people and to order them into what they should do. | :00:59. | :01:02. | |
We rely on others to their influence. I believe and take at | :01:03. | :01:07. | |
face value the commitments that have been given. If it turns out the | :01:08. | :01:11. | |
people doing gauge and violence then they will have two answer for that | :01:12. | :01:14. | |
and we will hold them to account and that is why we want to bind people | :01:15. | :01:19. | |
into a clear and non-equivocal statement that makes clear that | :01:20. | :01:23. | |
violence and unlawfulness can be no part in what we are seeking to | :01:24. | :01:28. | |
achieve. Any such commitment is welcome according to the chieftains. | :01:29. | :01:32. | |
I want people of influence right across society and right down to | :01:33. | :01:41. | |
community level to be exercising whatever influence they can to make | :01:42. | :01:44. | |
sure we do not end up dealing with disorder and violence on the | :01:45. | :01:47. | |
streets. If that is the case then it is to be welcomed. The welcome came | :01:48. | :01:50. | |
with a warning against any protests that involve blocking roads. It is | :01:51. | :01:56. | |
unlawful. We will arrest people and secure evidence and prosecute them | :01:57. | :02:01. | |
and they will get criminal records. It may include clearing the road | :02:02. | :02:05. | |
with force at the time if it is the proportionate and sensible thing to | :02:06. | :02:10. | |
do. If people break the law we will do the best to collect evidence and | :02:11. | :02:14. | |
prosecute them. Unionist politicians who walked out of talks yesterday | :02:15. | :02:19. | |
are in a negative mode according to the leader of Sinn Fein who called | :02:20. | :02:25. | |
for calm. We should not minimise the potential but neither should we | :02:26. | :02:29. | |
exaggerate the fact that this is localised. There will be more people | :02:30. | :02:36. | |
in Northern Ireland final that will be engaged in the pretentious -- | :02:37. | :02:41. | |
contentious behaviour. The Unionist grassroots opinion is not serious, | :02:42. | :02:48. | |
outside of the Orange the pulse of grassroots unionism wants peace and | :02:49. | :02:55. | |
calm and tolerance and respect. In a statement this evening the Orange | :02:56. | :02:58. | |
Order announced it had met with Unionist leaders, endorsing their | :02:59. | :03:03. | |
stance over the parades commission decision and appealing for protest | :03:04. | :03:15. | |
to be peaceful and lawful. Two men who allegedly represented the IRA | :03:16. | :03:21. | |
with the sisters of Robert McCartney will be charged with IRA leadership. | :03:22. | :03:31. | |
The two men before court are Patrick Wilson and Sean Hughes. They are | :03:32. | :03:35. | |
accused of IRA membership and addressing a meeting encouraging | :03:36. | :03:41. | |
support for the IRA. Evidence has been heard from the sisters of | :03:42. | :03:45. | |
Robert McCartney. They told the court that following the death of | :03:46. | :03:47. | |
their brother they were invited to meetings with the IRA and they said | :03:48. | :03:53. | |
that both of these men were at the meeting. They say the men told them | :03:54. | :03:57. | |
they were from the IRA Army Council and had the authority to speak for | :03:58. | :04:02. | |
the Army Council. To date's meeting also heard of a second meeting with | :04:03. | :04:06. | |
the same men at Holycross Church. At this meeting one man said that if he | :04:07. | :04:12. | |
had his way he would like to see those responsible for killing Robert | :04:13. | :04:17. | |
McCartney get a bullet in the head. The judge ordered the case to go to | :04:18. | :04:18. | |
the Crown Court for trial. Country star Garth Brooks says it's | :04:19. | :04:24. | |
all or nothing when it comes to his Several hundred thousand fans look | :04:25. | :04:27. | |
set to be disappointed after the city council refused | :04:28. | :04:35. | |
licences for two of them. It is a decision that has thrown | :04:36. | :04:46. | |
400,000 Garth Brooks fans into turmoil. After a 17 year wait to see | :04:47. | :04:51. | |
their idol take to the stage again at the Stadium may not be filled | :04:52. | :04:56. | |
with the sound of country music. It follows a decision by Dublin City | :04:57. | :04:59. | |
Council that two of the five concerts planned for the end of this | :05:00. | :05:03. | |
month will not go ahead. It said he could have taken into consideration | :05:04. | :05:07. | |
the views of the local residents but those who live close by so they have | :05:08. | :05:24. | |
not been fully consulted and are campaigning for the shows to go on. | :05:25. | :05:27. | |
There are 373 people who have a job to do the concerts and there are | :05:28. | :05:30. | |
more than that who will come out onto the streets and come out on | :05:31. | :05:33. | |
Sunday and we are having a peaceful meeting so come out and show your | :05:34. | :05:36. | |
support for the concerts. There are kids in the area who have some work | :05:37. | :05:39. | |
up there and depend on as many gigs as possible to go ahead because it | :05:40. | :05:42. | |
is the only job that they have. The City Council says it will not be | :05:43. | :05:45. | |
making any U-turns. It is a mess at the moment and the whole thing is a | :05:46. | :05:48. | |
debacle. It was wrongly handled by the promoters from the start and | :05:49. | :05:50. | |
they did not engage with local residents. Now Garth Brooks has | :05:51. | :05:54. | |
raided into the row and in a statement he said he had faith that | :05:55. | :06:07. | |
the council will make the best decision for the people of Ireland. | :06:08. | :06:10. | |
He added that it was all five shows or none at all, saying picking which | :06:11. | :06:13. | |
ones not to do would be like asking to choose one child over the other. | :06:14. | :06:16. | |
Fancy are hoping he does not pull the plug. It is terrible. People | :06:17. | :06:18. | |
have been brought tickets for presence and booked hotels and | :06:19. | :06:20. | |
everything and they are looking forward to it. I say bring it to | :06:21. | :06:24. | |
Belfast! I know a lot of people who would have camped out for the night | :06:25. | :06:28. | |
to queue for tickets so you can imagine their annoyance. The concert | :06:29. | :06:32. | |
promoter said it followed the proper licensing procedures and it is | :06:33. | :06:35. | |
deeply disappointed by the decision. Now we are saying he can only do | :06:36. | :06:47. | |
three, he does not want to who have bought tickets for the three shows | :06:48. | :06:50. | |
but he does not want to disappoint those who have bought tickets for | :06:51. | :06:53. | |
the two shows so it is up the -- up in the air. It is understood that | :06:54. | :06:57. | |
the promotion company are locked in talks and will not comment further | :06:58. | :07:04. | |
until the start of next week. A 51 your old woman who stole over | :07:05. | :07:09. | |
?100,000 from customers while working at the Northern bank has | :07:10. | :07:14. | |
been given a suspended sentence. The court was told Linda Allison managed | :07:15. | :07:17. | |
to steal the money by taking it from accounts that have not been used for | :07:18. | :07:22. | |
a number of years. The judge Shoji was -- the judge said he was | :07:23. | :07:26. | |
suspending her sentence because of her guilty feet and the fact that | :07:27. | :07:30. | |
she had signed away her pension to pay back most of the money she owed. | :07:31. | :07:33. | |
The Belfast-born businesswoman who founded the Space NK cosmetics chain | :07:34. | :07:35. | |
has been awarded an honorary degree by the University of Ulster. | :07:36. | :07:38. | |
Nicky Kinnaird founded the Space NK business in 1993 in London | :07:39. | :07:41. | |
and it now has 85 shops across the UK, Ireland and the United States. | :07:42. | :07:44. | |
There are two shops in her home city of Belfast. | :07:45. | :07:48. | |
The honorary degree from the university's Ulster | :07:49. | :07:50. | |
business school pays tribute to her tenacity and flair. | :07:51. | :07:59. | |
When I was growing up here I was very sporty and competitive and that | :08:00. | :08:05. | |
was instilled within our family and it came out on the sports field of | :08:06. | :08:09. | |
whatever nature there. When I make my mind up to go for something I | :08:10. | :08:14. | |
will really stick at it. To be successful you have to be | :08:15. | :08:19. | |
determined. Now we go to the forecast. | :08:20. | :08:21. | |
The weather did improve for the latter part of today and things are | :08:22. | :08:26. | |
a bit unsettled as we head into the weekend. We have low pressure in | :08:27. | :08:30. | |
charge which will bring us a mixed bag. Bright and sunny spells but an | :08:31. | :08:34. | |
increasing number of showers, some of them will be heavy. Some could be | :08:35. | :08:40. | |
slow-moving as well. One or two showers for northern and western | :08:41. | :08:44. | |
parts tonight. Most parts will be dry with clear spells. Some rural | :08:45. | :08:53. | |
spots could go a few degrees lower than this. Tomorrow we have a story | :08:54. | :08:57. | |
of sunshine and showers. To begin with not too many of those showers | :08:58. | :09:02. | |
and a fair amount of sunshine. For the Republic of Ireland showers will | :09:03. | :09:06. | |
get going as they will across parts of Scotland. It brightens up across | :09:07. | :09:11. | |
north-west England and in the south-west after a cloudy start but | :09:12. | :09:14. | |
for the rest of England they have the remnants of the weather fronts | :09:15. | :09:18. | |
with bits and pieces of rain. Temperatures well down on the | :09:19. | :09:23. | |
barriers of today. But still quite warm. Coming back to Northern | :09:24. | :09:28. | |
Ireland for the afternoon there will be showers around. If and when you | :09:29. | :09:31. | |
get them and not all parts will they could be quite heavy with the risk | :09:32. | :09:36. | |
of thunder. There will be gaps between the man temperatures should | :09:37. | :09:40. | |
rise to 18. They might ease off tomorrow night to give a dry start | :09:41. | :09:44. | |
on Sunday but then we do it again and the showers look more frequent | :09:45. | :09:48. | |
on Sunday and some could be heavy and thundery and they could even be | :09:49. | :09:51. | |
mixed with hail. Have a good weekend. | :09:52. | :09:56. | |
