The police did stand-by when people were putting flags up and I do not | :00:00. | :00:37. | |
want to see that again because the police have brought themselves into | :00:38. | :00:39. | |
disrepute. But this evening, the police tell | :00:40. | :00:43. | |
The View they're changing their Also tonight - | :00:44. | :00:46. | |
it's been years in the making, and tonight we get an exclusive | :00:47. | :00:49. | |
first look at the Executive's draft Plus, crying foul on the political | :00:50. | :00:52. | |
game - Alex Kane and Paul McFadden are monitoring developments | :00:53. | :00:56. | |
in Commentators' Corner. And you can, of course, | :00:57. | :00:57. | |
join the debate on Twitter - Flags, and what to do about them, | :00:58. | :01:00. | |
is a problem which our politicians But now, in an apparent change | :01:01. | :01:08. | |
of policy, the PSNI has told The View it will in future treat | :01:09. | :01:13. | |
the erection of loyalist flags in one mixed area of south Belfast | :01:14. | :01:16. | |
as a breach of the peace. We'll have political reaction to | :01:17. | :01:24. | |
that move in just a moment, but first this report from | :01:25. | :01:26. | |
Gareth Gordon... Love them, load them, flags are hard | :01:27. | :01:55. | |
to ignore. 4000 flying here in July alone, just along main roads. | :01:56. | :01:58. | |
to ignore. 4000 flying here in July alone, just This is one of self | :01:59. | :02:03. | |
Belfast's main arterial routes. It is no longer a Unionist stronghold | :02:04. | :02:07. | |
but you would never know it from these pictures. It has changed but | :02:08. | :02:28. | |
the flags tell another story. 57% of people who live here are Catholic. | :02:29. | :02:39. | |
27% are Protestants. 31% call themselves British. 36% are Irish | :02:40. | :02:45. | |
and 29% are Northern Irish. Clearly, this is a loyalist area. It does not | :02:46. | :02:51. | |
matter too much because there is no hassle. It is time for and the | :02:52. | :03:05. | |
bands, a very enjoyable day. I prefer them not to be any. It brings | :03:06. | :03:15. | |
the area down. The flags appeared on a Thursday night during the election | :03:16. | :03:20. | |
campaign, under the noses of the police who are calling for Elektra | :03:21. | :03:26. | |
presented this. Duncan Morrow is a former head of the community | :03:27. | :03:29. | |
relations Council who stood for Alliance in the elections. I rang | :03:30. | :03:36. | |
people up and ask them what they were doing, and they were present | :03:37. | :03:41. | |
when the flags were put up. Part of the issue for us is, I suppose, are | :03:42. | :03:48. | |
people safe putting them up or taking them down? Is there a threat | :03:49. | :03:53. | |
that makes it look like the rule of law is not operating? Sinn Fein also | :03:54. | :04:03. | |
disgust the issue. Police officers did stand-by when flags were going | :04:04. | :04:07. | |
up and I do not want to see them do that. They have brought themselves | :04:08. | :04:10. | |
into disrepute with their behaviour around the flag. After discussing | :04:11. | :04:16. | |
the issue, we have a better understanding of what needs to | :04:17. | :04:25. | |
happen. What needs to happen? If someone is putting a flag up, that | :04:26. | :04:31. | |
will be seen as a breach of the peace because that could lead to | :04:32. | :04:36. | |
disorder. The police have told us they have had a rethink. In a | :04:37. | :04:40. | |
statement released to this programme they say further enquiries back the | :04:41. | :04:43. | |
assessment that tensions are... This local DUP representatives said | :04:44. | :05:09. | |
the police have enough to do without worrying about flags. We have | :05:10. | :05:14. | |
experienced a rise in crime over the course of the year and I believe the | :05:15. | :05:18. | |
PSNI has better things to be doing with its time than sending officers | :05:19. | :05:22. | |
shimmying up lamp posts to remove flags. If the representative of | :05:23. | :05:30. | |
South Belfast believe that is the best use of their time, I think he | :05:31. | :05:33. | |
should go in look what the priorities are. The actual flags | :05:34. | :05:41. | |
themselves are getting bigger. These have gone up all around Belfast. | :05:42. | :05:46. | |
This academic was funded by the executive to survey the growing | :05:47. | :05:56. | |
forest of flags. We have draw. His collection is around 120. At one | :05:57. | :06:02. | |
level, you have to have something. If you mess around with this stuff, | :06:03. | :06:07. | |
you take some down and twice as many will go up. I have some sympathy. On | :06:08. | :06:13. | |
the other hand, the use of the market territory affects | :06:14. | :06:18. | |
economically these places. We have done survey work and that shows it | :06:19. | :06:25. | |
economically affects places. We do have a very real problem, and | :06:26. | :06:30. | |
sometimes that slips into real intimidation, and it is the | :06:31. | :06:35. | |
police's job to look into that. It appears they are listening. In this | :06:36. | :06:40. | |
part of self Belfast at least. -- South L4. -- Belfast. | :06:41. | :06:51. | |
With me now to discuss tonight's development | :06:52. | :06:53. | |
and the forthcoming talks on flags, parades and the past are | :06:54. | :06:56. | |
Gerry Kelly from Sinn Fein, Chris Lyttle from the Alliance Party, and | :06:57. | :06:59. | |
from our Foyle studio we're joined by Gregory Campbell from the DUP. | :07:00. | :07:04. | |
How significant an apparent change of policy is this by the police? | :07:05. | :07:13. | |
It is a step forward, I think, by the police. In North fast and other | :07:14. | :07:24. | |
places, police officers were saying that the policy was that they would | :07:25. | :07:30. | |
not remove flags. They clear indication now is that where they | :07:31. | :07:40. | |
are in these areas... During the talks, the Unionists would not budge | :07:41. | :07:46. | |
at all on the flags and one suggestion was, let's start off | :07:47. | :07:50. | |
small, what about hospitals, places of worship and schools being no flag | :07:51. | :07:57. | |
areas? Just to start the process of? They would not budge on that. | :07:58. | :08:04. | |
There have been a few statements issued, and we will hear from | :08:05. | :08:10. | |
Gregory Cambell, Unionist feel Sinn Fein will attempt to exploit this | :08:11. | :08:16. | |
new policy on behalf of the PSNI in other areas # Parliamentary 's were | :08:17. | :08:24. | |
exploiting it all over the place. I think we have to go at it easy. They | :08:25. | :08:31. | |
are not arguing about flags which are coming down in areas where they | :08:32. | :08:38. | |
are most welcome. On the road, people were saying we don't want | :08:39. | :08:49. | |
that. . They are not going to take down every flag in the north, we are | :08:50. | :08:52. | |
going to be sensible about the issue. Gregory Campbell. What could | :08:53. | :09:02. | |
be wrong about sensitivity on behalf of the police to an issue that is | :09:03. | :09:06. | |
causing concern in a mixed part of Dell fast? -- Belfast there is | :09:07. | :09:16. | |
nothing wrong with that. I have examples in my constituency where | :09:17. | :09:25. | |
tricolours are trying to come down for months on end. Are we going to | :09:26. | :09:31. | |
have the same sensitivity by police there? Will they go up forcibly and | :09:32. | :09:42. | |
remove them? Will this start at trends -- a trend? Will they be | :09:43. | :09:47. | |
subject to close please scrutiny while criminals will be even more | :09:48. | :09:58. | |
difficult to apprehends while please officers are trying to bring down | :09:59. | :10:03. | |
her flag? Is that the level that we are going to descend to? What is the | :10:04. | :10:08. | |
position of the DUP on this? I get a mixed message. You are concerned | :10:09. | :10:13. | |
about getting tricolours down but your party colleague in south | :10:14. | :10:17. | |
Belfast is saying the police have more important things to do. I just | :10:18. | :10:24. | |
said what we were concerned about. Evil have more important rings to | :10:25. | :10:30. | |
do. But you want to be tricolours down? No, no. The police cannot say | :10:31. | :10:45. | |
that we will intervene there are not intervene anywhere else. We have to | :10:46. | :10:49. | |
be very, very careful here that we do not exasperate and already | :10:50. | :10:56. | |
delicate position. OK, you do not want to do that but what about the | :10:57. | :10:59. | |
people responsible for putting the flags up? The length of the Armagh | :11:00. | :11:05. | |
Road in south Belfast is no longer a Protestant stronghold. Presumably, | :11:06. | :11:11. | |
that is designed to intimidate people? What about people who are | :11:12. | :11:16. | |
uncomfortable about that and do not want to see those flags? In various | :11:17. | :11:26. | |
areas of Northern Ireland we had a, and for the most part, it worked | :11:27. | :11:29. | |
well. Sometimes there were problems but it worked reasonably well. That | :11:30. | :11:34. | |
was with local groups and communities and representatives. | :11:35. | :11:40. | |
They had discussions about how long they could go up for and when they | :11:41. | :11:47. | |
would come down. Those talks fell about as a result of Belfast City | :11:48. | :11:52. | |
Council's decision 18 months ago to remove the union flag. Is it tip for | :11:53. | :12:04. | |
tat? Is it revenge? No, it is not. If they make an extraordinary | :12:05. | :12:09. | |
decision which sends shock waves across the community, they have do | :12:10. | :12:13. | |
say to themselves, was that the right decision and should be revisit | :12:14. | :12:16. | |
it in an effort to de-escalate tensions? Do you see this latest | :12:17. | :12:27. | |
developments as progress, is it a policy you would like to see rolled | :12:28. | :12:33. | |
out across Northern Ireland? I think people are fed up with the | :12:34. | :12:36. | |
application of leadership from Sinn Fein. The political parties have the | :12:37. | :12:42. | |
power and authority to take this out of the hands of the police by | :12:43. | :12:46. | |
reaching an agreement on the issue of flags. One party put forward | :12:47. | :12:50. | |
proposals in the past process to deal with these issues. The DUP | :12:51. | :12:55. | |
point-blank refused to address this issue. DUP and Sinn Fein have done | :12:56. | :13:01. | |
nothing to address the issue in seven years. There was an original | :13:02. | :13:07. | |
protocol in place which said, no flags on arterial route. The | :13:08. | :13:14. | |
political parties have the power to get this out of the hands of the | :13:15. | :13:18. | |
police. You what about the strategy at the moment? Could you see a | :13:19. | :13:28. | |
person dance -- circumstance where officers would be able to arrest | :13:29. | :13:35. | |
people who put up flags? Would this not further heighten tensions? The | :13:36. | :13:40. | |
failure of political leadership is putting the police in a difficult | :13:41. | :13:46. | |
position. The public have spoken. 75% of people do not support flags | :13:47. | :13:50. | |
on lamp posts for a long period of time. They want to see a timeline | :13:51. | :13:56. | |
for the display of flags, and the political parties need to put a | :13:57. | :13:58. | |
process in place where that can be delivered. Enforcement may be | :13:59. | :14:02. | |
necessary at some point in time by the police, of course. The flags are | :14:03. | :14:07. | |
up at the moment and the police are not going to take them down. There | :14:08. | :14:12. | |
was a lack of clarity around that. They have said it is not their job. | :14:13. | :14:18. | |
This is an issue that is damaging community relations and it is | :14:19. | :14:22. | |
damaging to traders in the areas. There is an opportunity to do this | :14:23. | :14:26. | |
in upcoming talks and There is an opportunity to do this | :14:27. | :14:30. | |
got on with dealing with this. The talks are about several things, and | :14:31. | :14:36. | |
flags are part of the agenda, or we think they will be, certainly an | :14:37. | :14:42. | |
outstanding issue to be resolved. What is the status of those talks at | :14:43. | :14:47. | |
the moment? When you talk to Sinn Fein, there is momentum and this is | :14:48. | :14:51. | |
an attempt to resolve the issue in a small window of opportunity. If we | :14:52. | :15:06. | |
want to get this thing sorted out, what has happened is the DUP seems | :15:07. | :15:11. | |
to be looking over their shoulder at the Ulster Unionists. There are | :15:12. | :15:19. | |
mixed messages coming through. If there is an issue where there is a | :15:20. | :15:28. | |
mixed community, that is something that needs to get sorted out. In | :15:29. | :15:36. | |
areas where any ordinary person would have said, schools, places of | :15:37. | :15:47. | |
worship... An invitation by Gerry Kelly to talk about this, try to -- | :15:48. | :16:06. | |
Trico laws in a mixed area. This is a picture of Orange proceeding to | :16:07. | :16:12. | |
their church. There are no flags, no banners, no drums, nothing there | :16:13. | :16:27. | |
except Orangemen walking to church. Sinn Fein went to the parades | :16:28. | :16:37. | |
commission to lodge an objection. They then had four councillors who | :16:38. | :16:41. | |
tried to stop that peaceful procession with no flag, no banner, | :16:42. | :16:53. | |
no drums. Sinn Fein want no Orangemen about the place. Sinn Fein | :16:54. | :16:57. | |
and Gerry Kelly need to realise that this is not going to work. They need | :16:58. | :17:05. | |
to get real and understand that we are talking about a shared future, | :17:06. | :17:08. | |
that is what most people want. We have to knuckle down, accept | :17:09. | :17:14. | |
cultural identities. It is not easy for people in my community but it is | :17:15. | :17:19. | |
not easy for Republicans either and they need to wake up and show some | :17:20. | :17:23. | |
leadership and get people to accept peaceful parades that art | :17:24. | :17:29. | |
inoffensive. They chose to object and take offence. It is not one-way | :17:30. | :17:36. | |
traffic because I am sure Gerry Kelly will quote chapter and verse | :17:37. | :17:43. | |
about incidents where parades were not sensitive to local residents. We | :17:44. | :17:50. | |
need leadership on both sides. Yes, and we are prepared to give that. | :17:51. | :17:59. | |
How? It is a continuation of the talks we engaged in last year. But | :18:00. | :18:04. | |
there needs to be an initiative taken on either side to try to | :18:05. | :18:10. | |
negotiate and see if we can get a resolution. It is not a resolution | :18:11. | :18:23. | |
for Sinn Fein to sit back and say that they will just sit there. There | :18:24. | :18:30. | |
was a deal after the Hillsborough talks but you could not sell it to | :18:31. | :18:39. | |
the Orange order. Are you prepared to put that back on the table? That | :18:40. | :18:45. | |
was a few years ago and we have been back to the table since then and we | :18:46. | :18:49. | |
are prepared to get negotiations going but be under no illusion, | :18:50. | :18:53. | |
everybody needs to step up in the next two to three weeks because | :18:54. | :18:57. | |
there is a very difficult situation brewing on the streets in Northern | :18:58. | :19:08. | |
Ireland. I want to hear from Chris Lyttle. What about the leadership | :19:09. | :19:12. | |
that is not being shown by Sinn Fein? The message that that sends | :19:13. | :19:23. | |
out, Sinn Fein objecting to Orangemen progressing to church | :19:24. | :19:27. | |
without any flags or anthems. He is not happy about that, he is showing | :19:28. | :19:36. | |
the picture. If he means asked talking to the parades commission, | :19:37. | :19:44. | |
that is legitimate. According to impartial observers who were | :19:45. | :19:51. | |
there... Sinn Fein and the residents as well as the DUP and others, what | :19:52. | :19:57. | |
we are down to is, are they prepared to sit down? We had the opportunity | :19:58. | :20:06. | |
to do that. All of the parties accept it despite the fact that | :20:07. | :20:14. | |
there was pain on all sides. Who will chair these talks and do they | :20:15. | :20:19. | |
stand any chance of success? We have the DUP and Sinn Fein tonight, who | :20:20. | :20:26. | |
are responsible for community relations. All public areas should | :20:27. | :20:32. | |
be shared space and we need significant leadership from the | :20:33. | :20:39. | |
parties. It is about behaving in a respectful balanced way when you are | :20:40. | :20:46. | |
in that space. Both Gerry Kelly and Gregory Campbell say they are | :20:47. | :20:49. | |
willing to show leadership and they recognised that difficult decisions | :20:50. | :20:52. | |
need to be made. Is there a tiny chink of hope? I hope so but we have | :20:53. | :21:02. | |
had seven years of this and we have put forward proposals that could | :21:03. | :21:06. | |
solve this. I hope we see something from these talks for the sake of our | :21:07. | :21:12. | |
community. We will see what happens when the talks get under way. Thank | :21:13. | :21:14. | |
you, gentlemen, very much indeed. Northern Ireland hasn't exactly | :21:15. | :21:21. | |
covered itself in glory these last few weeks | :21:22. | :21:22. | |
as far as race relations go. Anti-Islamic rhetoric and attacks | :21:23. | :21:25. | |
on immigrants and on their homes have led to calls | :21:26. | :21:27. | |
for politicians to unveil their Well, tonight here on The View, | :21:28. | :21:30. | |
we can reveal what is It's called A Sense of Belonging | :21:31. | :21:34. | |
and it outlines six main aims: the elimination of racism, | :21:35. | :21:43. | |
racial inequality and discrimination and the promotion | :21:44. | :21:47. | |
of equality of opportunity. It aims to combat racism | :21:48. | :21:50. | |
and race hate crime. To ensure people | :21:51. | :21:52. | |
from minority ethnic backgrounds To increase participation, | :21:53. | :21:54. | |
representation and a sense of To strengthen relations | :21:55. | :22:00. | |
between people of different faiths And to help minority communities | :22:01. | :22:06. | |
develop leadership at local The document also makes | :22:07. | :22:10. | |
a strong link between racism Our Political Editor, Mark | :22:11. | :22:15. | |
Devenport, has been reading the Thank you for joining us. It is a | :22:16. | :22:49. | |
substantial, 16 page document. Are there any particular surprises come | :22:50. | :22:55. | |
do you think? Not really. We have to bear in mind the fact that it is | :22:56. | :23:01. | |
four years out of date, a previous strategy lasted until 2010, and this | :23:02. | :23:08. | |
is due to run until 2024. It was the document that Anna Lo was getting | :23:09. | :23:18. | |
upset about because she said there had not been a strategy despite the | :23:19. | :23:24. | |
upsurge in racist attacks. Most people would agree that you need to | :23:25. | :23:30. | |
combat racism and hate crime and try to make sure that there is equal | :23:31. | :23:35. | |
service provision to people no matter what race they are. There is | :23:36. | :23:40. | |
discussion of a possible seventh came, about the right to maintain | :23:41. | :23:46. | |
one's cultural identity. There is a debate about whether that is a good | :23:47. | :23:51. | |
thing to include because obviously whilst to some extent everybody | :23:52. | :23:57. | |
might subscribe to that there might be aspects of cultural identity, | :23:58. | :24:01. | |
gentle mutilations, which in this society we might not wish to | :24:02. | :24:11. | |
sustain. Were you surprised to see a regional immigration policy being | :24:12. | :24:16. | |
floated? That was the most surprising aspect. Not least because | :24:17. | :24:20. | |
you might say why should Stormont have an immigration policy, because | :24:21. | :24:24. | |
immigration in the UK is not a devolved matter. Why do we have this | :24:25. | :24:30. | |
reference to an immigration policy? In that chapter it talks about that | :24:31. | :24:37. | |
at times our regional interests will not coincide with those of Britain. | :24:38. | :24:48. | |
Obviously that braces questions as to what could be a regional | :24:49. | :24:55. | |
immigration policy and how to what could be a regional | :24:56. | :24:58. | |
it might be to have one, given, are we going to have separate order | :24:59. | :25:00. | |
controls for Northern Ireland? we going to have separate order | :25:01. | :25:06. | |
more limited local relation to legal aid to migrants, | :25:07. | :25:17. | |
perhaps a slightly more liberal approach than the rest of the UK. If | :25:18. | :25:23. | |
it is limited to that maybe not so contentious but if it starts a | :25:24. | :25:26. | |
debate about something bigger that could have political kickback. As we | :25:27. | :25:30. | |
understand it could have political kickback. As we | :25:31. | :25:33. | |
have both signed up to the draft document. It is possible, is it, | :25:34. | :25:43. | |
that the DUP could be criticised by elements within the TUV and UKIP for | :25:44. | :25:48. | |
being even seen to encourage discussion about the regional | :25:49. | :25:56. | |
immigration policy? It is surprising that they seem fairly relaxed about | :25:57. | :26:00. | |
this aspect of the document. They might say that it is just out there | :26:01. | :26:04. | |
as a consultation document, but to some extent you could say, we have | :26:05. | :26:13. | |
just had an election, many people have just voted for UKIP, who have | :26:14. | :26:18. | |
tightening immigration controls as a big selling point. When they look at | :26:19. | :26:22. | |
that particular chapter it might give them a stick to beat the DUP | :26:23. | :26:30. | |
with over immigration. One source I talked to said that they may be | :26:31. | :26:37. | |
managing expect Haitians, because perhaps some of those who have been | :26:38. | :26:40. | |
waiting for this may not feel it is as robust as it might be. -- | :26:41. | :26:50. | |
managing expectations. Maybe within the world of those who are | :26:51. | :26:58. | |
monitoring racism, they may have specific differences about the | :26:59. | :27:06. | |
implementation of the strategy, talk of an equality panel, talk of ?1 | :27:07. | :27:11. | |
million fund, and it is not clear whether that is up and running. | :27:12. | :27:15. | |
There may be debate about this. In terms of the wider political | :27:16. | :27:20. | |
sphere, the immigration sector is probably the one that will spark the | :27:21. | :27:27. | |
most exchanges on the Unionist side. This will shortly go out to public | :27:28. | :27:35. | |
consultation. What kind of reaction do you think we will get when it | :27:36. | :27:38. | |
finds its way into the public domain? Apart from being | :27:39. | :27:44. | |
underwhelmed, I think most of the lobbyists already have a sense of | :27:45. | :27:50. | |
what is in it. Maybe it is another illustration of things that should | :27:51. | :27:54. | |
not take too long taking an awful long time to get out of the office | :27:55. | :27:57. | |
of the first Minister. Let's hear the thoughts of tonight's | :27:58. | :28:03. | |
commentators on a busy programme. Alex Kane | :28:04. | :28:05. | |
and Paul McFadden are with me. You managed to tear yourselves away | :28:06. | :28:09. | |
from the football, then? He did! What is the score? 2-2. | :28:10. | :28:27. | |
2-1. We will not all you any more on that. | :28:28. | :28:29. | |
This police statement to The View tonight on the flying of flags on | :28:30. | :28:32. | |
the Ormeau Road in south Belfast - how significant a development is it? | :28:33. | :28:36. | |
I think it is certainly significant. I do have some sympathy | :28:37. | :28:43. | |
with the police because it is difficult to police, and it will be | :28:44. | :28:47. | |
interesting to see how they do that. The pictures we saw earlier on | :28:48. | :28:58. | |
of flags, I think it is not on, in this day and age. I can see why the | :28:59. | :29:02. | |
police would take the view that it would heighten tensions. There is a | :29:03. | :29:08. | |
difference between flying and flaunting, and we need to strike the | :29:09. | :29:13. | |
balance. Alex, the differences between Sinn Fein and DUP were quite | :29:14. | :29:23. | |
large in that exchange. Absolutely. It is turf war. I agree with the | :29:24. | :29:30. | |
police at the suggestion seems to be that you cannot fly certain flags in | :29:31. | :29:34. | |
mixed areas that are they saying that it is OK if the majority in one | :29:35. | :29:40. | |
area once a particular flag? Where do you draw the line? Why now? Why | :29:41. | :29:46. | |
two days after the parties announced there would be talks on flags does | :29:47. | :29:52. | |
he come in and say, we have changed our policy? Will Sinn Fein exploit | :29:53. | :29:57. | |
this in other areas? They may well do. Gregory talked about the | :29:58. | :30:11. | |
decision. He called the decision extraordinary. It may have been | :30:12. | :30:15. | |
extraordinary but it was a democratic decision. It is important | :30:16. | :30:20. | |
to bear that in mind. Almost seems as though that may be Gregory and | :30:21. | :30:26. | |
those who are erecting flags are trying to achieve something, trying | :30:27. | :30:32. | |
to force a change with Belfast City Council. I do not think that will | :30:33. | :30:39. | |
happen. I just worry that if both sides are going to say this type of | :30:40. | :30:41. | |
flag is acceptable here, not acceptable here, this is not going | :30:42. | :30:48. | |
to go away. Even the Alliance party, he had a slightly different angle. | :30:49. | :30:55. | |
Three parties do not agree on anything. I was asking whether Sinn | :30:56. | :31:04. | |
Fein would exploit it but Republicans may ask whether | :31:05. | :31:14. | |
loyalists may do so? It is a dangerous game at a sensitive time. | :31:15. | :31:19. | |
It is a recipe for disaster, possibly looming. At the end of the | :31:20. | :31:28. | |
day, the police will be dealing with the consequences of all this. I do | :31:29. | :31:32. | |
not know how they deal with this because they will not drop the lamp | :31:33. | :31:36. | |
posts to deal with the flags. I think people will deliberately stand | :31:37. | :31:42. | |
at lamp posts, almost taunting the police. | :31:43. | :31:47. | |
The first look at the draft Race Equality Strategy - any surprises? | :31:48. | :31:55. | |
Nothing surprises me at all. Mark used the words underwhelming. I am | :31:56. | :32:08. | |
underwhelmed by it. The fundamental question... A quality is well and | :32:09. | :32:16. | |
good I want to know whether this document will do anything that will | :32:17. | :32:21. | |
make me feel safer and reduce the tax members of my community. Alex, | :32:22. | :32:26. | |
what do you think about the support from the DUP for a discussion on | :32:27. | :32:33. | |
regional immigration policy? Will there be others in the Unionist | :32:34. | :32:38. | |
family who will exploit that? No, it will not go anywhere. It is the | :32:39. | :32:45. | |
language they use. When they say racial equality, they cannot even | :32:46. | :32:49. | |
agree to bring Republicans in. 3-1 in the football. Have you got Brazil | :32:50. | :32:58. | |
in the office sweepstake? I am not playing. We will leave it there. | :32:59. | :33:05. | |
