Edinburgh, on the vote that could reshape Britain. Now we join the

:00:00.:00:00.

Carl Frampton has today been reflecting

:00:00.:00:09.

on his world title success at the weekend, Northern Ireland's first

:00:10.:00:12.

The big fight in the Titanic Quarter was one of the biggest sporting

:00:13.:00:21.

events to be staged in Belfast in recent years and boxing fans

:00:22.:00:23.

The first stop for the new world champion was Stormont.

:00:24.:00:31.

And the first question for the slightly bruised Belfast

:00:32.:00:33.

I am a bit sore, OK, but I am world champion.

:00:34.:00:41.

A dream of mine since I was a kid, so I am over the moon but very sore.

:00:42.:00:49.

It was given to him by the man he beat on Saturday

:00:50.:00:54.

He kindly lent it to me for a couple of weeks until I get mine.

:00:55.:01:04.

16,000 fans watched him win on Saturday night,

:01:05.:01:14.

so is there going to be another Frampton fight in Belfast soon?

:01:15.:01:23.

I would like to go to the US one day.

:01:24.:01:29.

Most of my fights, I want to be at Belfast.

:01:30.:01:34.

On the streets of North Belfast where he grew up,

:01:35.:01:36.

Not many people could walk down this road and everyone shake his hand.

:01:37.:01:50.

He has brought the whole country together, not just here.

:01:51.:01:56.

Talk about Rory Mcllroy, Carl Frampton is

:01:57.:02:11.

16,000 people from right across Belfast and beyond.

:02:12.:02:26.

Sitting together, singing together and in the end celebrating together.

:02:27.:02:32.

It seems everyone had a good time and the behaviour

:02:33.:02:34.

More importantly, a good night for the fans and Carl Frampton.

:02:35.:02:43.

It was a great night for Belfast and Northern Ireland.

:02:44.:02:46.

For all those involved, the hope is that there is much more to come.

:02:47.:02:53.

Earlier, Carl Frampton's manager Barry McGuigan was in the

:02:54.:02:56.

Stephen Watson asked him what the future held for Frampton now

:02:57.:03:01.

He has a mandatory defence which normally takes about a month and

:03:02.:03:14.

Then there is the opponent who wants to fight him again.

:03:15.:03:24.

Scott Quigg as well. A number of fabulous fights but we want him back

:03:25.:03:32.

in Belfast. We would like to do showcase ones in America, but the

:03:33.:03:37.

ones of significant importance, we want to have here.

:03:38.:03:39.

Cardinal Sean Brady has left the post of Primate of All Ireland,

:03:40.:03:42.

He had offered his resignation to Pope Francis last month

:03:43.:03:45.

From today, Eamon Martin is the new Archbishop of Armagh.

:03:46.:03:50.

After 18 years at the head of the Irish Catholic Church, Cardinal Sean

:03:51.:04:03.

Brady stood down today, having tendered his resignation to the Pope

:04:04.:04:07.

as he approached his 75th birthday. That was in compliance with church

:04:08.:04:13.

rules. In 2010, Cardinal Brady said he considered stepping down after

:04:14.:04:15.

his role in a clerical abuse cover-up was exposed. As a younger

:04:28.:04:33.

not protect them. He said he decided to stay on as what he described as a

:04:34.:04:39.

wounded healer. His critics said he should have gone years ago. He

:04:40.:04:44.

should have gone in 2010. Remaining on as a wounded healer rubbed salt

:04:45.:04:51.

in the wounds of survivors. And might have had some effect if he had

:04:52.:04:56.

gone 2010. Now it is meaningless. Cardinal Brady said goodbye to

:04:57.:05:01.

parishioners in Armagh today and again apologise for his

:05:02.:05:05.

shortcomings. I also need to say sorry and to ask forgiveness. And I

:05:06.:05:13.

do so again today. The new man in charge had been appointed as

:05:14.:05:16.

Cardinal Brady's successor some time ago. He said the days of an

:05:17.:05:23.

authoritarian cha-cha over. I do not want to give any sense that we are

would be to bring people together in the service of God. -- priority

:05:43.:05:43.

criticism of the Health Minister by Following a court ruling on gay men

:05:44.:05:46.

giving blood, Edwin Poots suggested he wouldn't get a fair hearing

:05:47.:05:52.

if he appealed the decision. Sir Declan Morgan described those

:05:53.:05:55.

comments as "detrimental to Today, the Deputy First Minister

Martin McGuinness today said he Our Home Affairs Correspondent

:05:58.:06:01.

Vincent Kearney reports. Edwin Poots said the judge was wrong

:06:02.:06:07.

when he ruled last November that a ban on gay men giving blood

:06:08.:06:11.

in Northern Ireland was irrational. He then went further

:06:12.:06:15.

and questioned the merits of lodging Do I believe I would get fairness

:06:16.:06:17.

in the Court of Appeal? Or would it be a circling

:06:18.:06:29.

of the wagons? That prompted the Lord Chief Justice

:06:30.:06:31.

to write to ministers. He described the comments as

:06:32.:06:42.

detrimental to the rule of law. To mark the new legal term

:06:43.:06:45.

on Friday, the Lord Chief Justice said he had no option

but to send a letter of complaint. I have no wish to become

Declan Morgan and I think the sooner Edwin Poots was not available

for comment. A statement issued

by the DUP does not mention the Health Minister's comments but says

:07:56.:07:57.

Martin McGuinness was wrong to blame Peter Robinson for the absence of a

and he has been willing to sign it. A cannabis factory has been

discovered in south Belfast. It was found during police

searches of a house in the Ventry It's unclear yet how much

:08:40.:08:42.

here's Angie Philips. High pressure is in charge again.

:08:43.:08:56.

That means unsettled weather will stay with us all week. If you're

:08:57.:09:02.

looking for some rain, you will be disappointed. Not much of it at all

:09:03.:09:04.

in the forecast and it is looking dry. Cloud will always be an issue

:09:05.:09:09.

but we will see some price bills coming through and it will be coming

:09:10.:09:12.

a little bit warmer from mid week onwards as well. Coming back to

:09:13.:09:18.

tonight, we have those light northerly winds. Still some cloud

:09:19.:09:22.

but clear spells will develop. It could get some misty patches.

:09:23.:09:26.

Temperatures holding around eight or nine Celsius but as with the last

:09:27.:09:29.

couple of nights, some areas could get close enough to freezing to get

:09:30.:09:33.

some grass frost. Tomorrow, Friday coming up. Variable and often large

:09:34.:09:41.

amounts of Clyde. -- cloud coming up. It looks like a fairly decent

:09:42.:09:48.

picture across many parts of Britain and Ireland tomorrow. Again, some

:09:49.:09:53.

places will have a fair amount of cloud and others will have sunshine.

:09:54.:09:57.

The best of the sunshine is in the Republic of Ireland and the South of

:09:58.:10:02.

England. Temperatures in the low 20s. Feeling pleasant, too, given

:10:03.:10:07.

date is not much for a breeze. For Northern Ireland, not a bad

:10:08.:10:11.

afternoon at all. Dry and a fair amount of Clyde. This should be some

:10:12.:10:15.

bright spells and temperatures of 18 Celsius. Through of the week,

:10:16.:10:20.

southeasterly winds bring temperatures up. It is still mainly

:10:21.:10:25.

dry and there will be sunny spells. We are back at 6:25am ginning BBC
