Those the First Minister except that the people of Northern Ireland has | :07:21. | :28:05. | |
said a clear message to the First Minister and Deputy First Minister | :28:06. | :28:10. | |
that they want to remain in the EU. How do she intend to act on that | :28:11. | :28:15. | |
mandate and instruction? The mandate and instruction was to the United | :28:16. | :28:22. | |
Kingdom Parliament, because as Mr Allister pointed out earlier today | :28:23. | :28:27. | |
when we voted on Thursday we were after question as to whether we | :28:28. | :28:31. | |
wanted the United Kingdom to leave the European Union or to remain. I | :28:32. | :28:38. | |
accept that the majority of people accept that the majority of people | :28:39. | :28:42. | |
in Northern Ireland, mostly in the West, decided that they wanted to | :28:43. | :28:48. | |
remain within the European Union. There is no surprise there. At the | :28:49. | :28:52. | |
beginning of the referendum campaign we were told that 75% would vote to | :28:53. | :29:00. | |
remain within the European Union. It was actually 55%, or 56%. I have | :29:01. | :29:11. | |
heard a lot today from the members party about respecting the 55% who | :29:12. | :29:16. | |
voted to remain and I will, as will the Deputy First Minister. She also | :29:17. | :29:20. | |
has to respect the view of the 44% has to respect the view of the 44% | :29:21. | :29:27. | |
of people who voted to leave and in times of the United Kingdom, which | :29:28. | :29:32. | |
is a member state which engages with the European Union, they voted to | :29:33. | :29:37. | |
leave. We can talk about these different arrangements but the | :29:38. | :29:40. | |
campaign is over and the boat has been taken and no are focus is to | :29:41. | :29:52. | |
make sure that Northern Ireland's best interests are preserved. -- and | :29:53. | :29:58. | |
now our focus is to | :29:59. | :29:59. |
