distress. Join me now on BBC Two, 11pm in Scotland. | :00:00. | :00:08. | |
The Sports Minister has defended the Irish Football Association over | :00:09. | :00:12. | |
criticism that it didn't include Team Ireland Paralympic champions | :00:13. | :00:17. | |
in a parade of celebrated people from Northern Ireland. | :00:18. | :00:20. | |
The Lap of Legends took place on Saturday during | :00:21. | :00:25. | |
the official reopening of the Windsor Park stadium. | :00:26. | :00:28. | |
Jason Smyth and Michael McKillop asked why they had | :00:29. | :00:30. | |
It wasn't just footballers who were invited to a lap of honour | :00:31. | :00:40. | |
around the new Windsor Park on Saturday night. | :00:41. | :00:44. | |
Soap star Charlie Lawson, once of Coronation Street, was there. | :00:45. | :00:46. | |
As did singer Gary Lightbody and goalkeeping great Pat Jennings. | :00:47. | :00:55. | |
Two Paralympic stars who recently represented Team GB were there - | :00:56. | :00:59. | |
But two runners who recently represented Team Ireland, | :01:00. | :01:06. | |
Jason Smyth and Michael McKillop, were not on the original invitation | :01:07. | :01:09. | |
The standout thing was, who we represent? | :01:10. | :01:18. | |
The two that are there compete for Great Britain and the two | :01:19. | :01:21. | |
Maybe that was me making an assumption, but that was | :01:22. | :01:25. | |
Michael McKillop also wasn't on the original invitation list. | :01:26. | :01:34. | |
He was invited at the last minute but he said that was too late. | :01:35. | :01:38. | |
I would love to have attended, I'm a massive sports fan and I've | :01:39. | :01:42. | |
been to many Northern Ireland matches in the past and it's coming | :01:43. | :01:45. | |
down to politics and who you compete for, and that's unfortunate | :01:46. | :01:48. | |
because I have always talked about representing the island. | :01:49. | :01:54. | |
But the IFA say it was not about politics but logistics. | :01:55. | :01:57. | |
And the Sports Minister says that should be the end of the matter. | :01:58. | :02:17. | |
I have no doubt that the IFA had no intention of causing offence | :02:18. | :02:21. | |
to anybody, and we shouldn't allow this to overshadow | :02:22. | :02:25. | |
It was certainly a night like no other at Windsor Park. | :02:26. | :02:35. | |
The Cabinet Minister in charge of the UK's exit | :02:36. | :02:39. | |
from the European Union has pledged that common travel | :02:40. | :02:42. | |
between Northern Ireland and the Republic will continue. | :02:43. | :02:45. | |
David Davis was answering questions in the House of Commons | :02:46. | :02:48. | |
from Mark Durkan of the SDLP and the DUP MP Sammy Wilson. | :02:49. | :02:51. | |
Mr Davis said discussions were taking place with the Dublin | :02:52. | :02:54. | |
government to ensure there was an open border. | :02:55. | :03:02. | |
Is one of the areas that was getting the most attention at the moment is | :03:03. | :03:08. | |
Northern Ireland. Because we do have issues to resolve on the border, we | :03:09. | :03:12. | |
will resolve them. We will not return to the old borders, we will | :03:13. | :03:20. | |
maintain the common travel area and we will maintain all of the benefits | :03:21. | :03:24. | |
we had in Northern Ireland before we entered the European Union. | :03:25. | :03:26. | |
The First Minister Arlene Foster has paid tribute to the senior | :03:27. | :03:29. | |
Orangeman Drew Nelson who has died after a short illness. | :03:30. | :03:31. | |
Condolences have also been expressed by the Ulster Unionist Party, | :03:32. | :03:34. | |
The current Grand Master has described Mr Nelson as perhaps | :03:35. | :03:40. | |
Drew Nelson was regarded as one of the most articulate voices | :03:41. | :03:49. | |
He was seen as a moderniser and a visionary within Orangeism. | :03:50. | :03:54. | |
Before taking on a leading role within the Order, he'd been | :03:55. | :03:58. | |
an Ulster Unionist councillor and former chair of Banbridge | :03:59. | :04:00. | |
The Queens University graduate was a solicitor in the Dromore | :04:01. | :04:03. | |
He was also a former part-time member of | :04:04. | :04:07. | |
But it was his profile as a leading Orangeman that put him | :04:08. | :04:12. | |
He was a much sought-after public speaker on the institution | :04:13. | :04:18. | |
and lobbied on its behalf amongst the political elite on both sides | :04:19. | :04:21. | |
of the border, breaking new ground when he addressed the Irish Senate | :04:22. | :04:24. | |
Thank you very much for the invitation to come here today. | :04:25. | :04:32. | |
He was also among Orange delegations that met SDLP | :04:33. | :04:35. | |
politicians, the former Irish President Mary McAleese and | :04:36. | :04:37. | |
the leader of the Catholic Church in Ireland at the time, | :04:38. | :04:40. | |
He kept in touch with the institution's grassroots | :04:41. | :04:44. | |
and was central to the parades issue, showing his support | :04:45. | :04:47. | |
for the protest at Twaddell Avenue when it was still ongoing. | :04:48. | :04:51. | |
I think he made a huge contribution in terms of its cultural direction, | :04:52. | :04:54. | |
and I think in restoring the reputation of the Order. | :04:55. | :05:04. | |
The Order's Grand Secretary has been described by fellow Orangemen | :05:05. | :05:06. | |
Drew was a colossus within the institution. | :05:07. | :05:16. | |
A lifelong Orangemen, dedicated to the Orange cause. | :05:17. | :05:21. | |
His greatest legacy being the visit of Prince Charles to the birthplace | :05:22. | :05:24. | |
of Orangeism at Sloan's House in County Armagh earlier this year, | :05:25. | :05:26. | |
and the level of recognition that symbolised for the Institution. | :05:27. | :05:30. | |
The Union flag is flying at half-mast in memory | :05:31. | :05:33. | |
Those within the Orange Order and outside that are well aware | :05:34. | :05:41. | |
More than 1600 fish are dead after a chemical spilled | :05:42. | :05:50. | |
It happened at the Carrigs River, which flows from Castlewellan | :05:51. | :05:57. | |
The Environment Agency says there's been significant pollution and it | :05:58. | :06:01. | |
Dundrum Bay is a significant shellfish production area, | :06:02. | :06:05. | |
and a clean-up operation has been taking place. | :06:06. | :06:10. | |
Two men have been remanded in custody following a stabbing | :06:11. | :06:13. | |
in Lisnaskea at the weekend when three men were wounded. | :06:14. | :06:21. | |
One of the men who appeared in court in Enniskillen today is charged | :06:22. | :06:24. | |
The other is accused of causing grievous bodily harm. | :06:25. | :06:28. | |
The family of a former UDR soldier who was murdered by the Real IRA | :06:29. | :06:31. | |
in Londonderry 14 years ago are calling for a fresh | :06:32. | :06:34. | |
David Caldwell's partner and daughter met the First | :06:35. | :06:36. | |
Minister Arlene Foster and the Ulster Unionist leader | :06:37. | :06:38. | |
Mike Nesbitt at Stormont today to seek their support | :06:39. | :06:41. | |
Earlier I heard more from our Political | :06:42. | :06:43. | |
David Caldwell had retired from the UDR and was carrying | :06:44. | :06:50. | |
out construction work on the Territorial Army base | :06:51. | :06:52. | |
in the Waterside area in 2002 when he picked up a bomb | :06:53. | :06:55. | |
He suffered multiple injuries and died two hours later | :06:56. | :07:02. | |
Police said he was a soft target working on an unmanned | :07:03. | :07:09. | |
There was widespread condemnation at the time about his murder, | :07:10. | :07:18. | |
the Real IRA admitted the attack and despite the fact a number | :07:19. | :07:21. | |
of people were arrested in question, no one has been held accountable | :07:22. | :07:24. | |
Why do the family want a fresh investigation now? | :07:25. | :07:30. | |
This stems from allegations which appeared in a book by a man | :07:31. | :07:33. | |
who claims he was a soldier working on covert operations in Derry around | :07:34. | :07:37. | |
He details a surveillance operation during which they were a link | :07:38. | :07:52. | |
the suspect they believed to be transporting a bomb. | :07:53. | :07:57. | |
He said the car they were following was | :07:58. | :07:59. | |
alongside another vehicle and the bomb was moved from one card | :08:00. | :08:02. | |
to another and they tailed the wrong car. | :08:03. | :08:04. | |
They were not able to thwart the attack and Mr | :08:05. | :08:06. | |
That raises serious questions for the family in terms | :08:07. | :08:09. | |
The author of the book refuses to divulge his real identity, | :08:10. | :08:14. | |
so this account cannot be tested, but the Caldwell family say | :08:15. | :08:18. | |
there are many questions which need answered and they came to Stormont | :08:19. | :08:21. | |
to lobby support from Arlene Foster and Mike Nesbitt. | :08:22. | :08:24. | |
This is what Mr Caldwell's partner had to say. | :08:25. | :08:33. | |
It is hurtful, someone knows details about David's death and could not | :08:34. | :08:36. | |
Will it be another 14 years to see who else | :08:37. | :08:40. | |
Mr Nesbitt says there are questions that need answers around this | :08:41. | :08:49. | |
and he has been in touch with the Chief Constable's office | :08:50. | :08:51. | |
and has quoted paragraphs from this book and urged the Chief Constable | :08:52. | :08:54. | |
Our political correspondent, Enda McClafferty, | :08:55. | :09:05. | |
Translink is asking for an end to free Christmas car parking | :09:06. | :09:10. | |
It says last year's initiative by the council increased congestion | :09:11. | :09:15. | |
Last year for the first time in four years, Belfast City Council made | :09:16. | :09:24. | |
1500 car parking spaces available for free on week nights | :09:25. | :09:27. | |
Translink said it had an impact on the punctuality of services. Pack | :09:28. | :09:57. | |
if Translink are offering attractive reductions and savings in their | :09:58. | :10:18. | |
fairies, if they are offering more frequent service, if they are | :10:19. | :10:22. | |
offering to extend the Park and Ride facility, then they benefit, but | :10:23. | :10:27. | |
also shoppers can benefit from the lowest fares and they benefit | :10:28. | :10:32. | |
because more people come in. It can be a win-win situation. Although the | :10:33. | :10:37. | |
proposals will be discussed at committee stage here on Wednesday | :10:38. | :10:41. | |
night, to be adopted bill had to go before a meeting of the council. | :10:42. | :10:46. | |
Translink said in a statement it is all part of the conversations it has | :10:47. | :10:50. | |
with various agencies to keep Belfast moving during the busy | :10:51. | :10:51. | |
festive period. Tomorrow we continue our digital | :10:52. | :10:57. | |
detox series of reports, as we look at how dependent many | :10:58. | :10:59. | |
people have become on smartphones, On the programme at 6:30pm, | :11:00. | :11:02. | |
BBC Newsline's Tara Mills will be reporting live from Garvagh, | :11:03. | :11:07. | |
where the McDonald family The mother, father and two teenage | :11:08. | :11:09. | |
daughters have agreed to do without their wi-fi for 48 | :11:10. | :11:15. | |
hours to see how they can I do think it will be Ellie, but I | :11:16. | :11:33. | |
have basis this and it could be tempted, because she has a lot more | :11:34. | :11:39. | |
things, chrome cast, Facebook, Snapchat, every time you get into | :11:40. | :11:45. | |
the room, I think she is talking it down but it could be Hannah | :11:46. | :11:46. | |
definitely. That's on tomorrow's | :11:47. | :11:52. | |
programme at 6:30pm. The weather forecast | :11:53. | :11:53. | |
now with Cecilia Daly. It turned out another really | :11:54. | :11:55. | |
nice day in most places. Looking at the week ahead, | :11:56. | :11:58. | |
changes will be very slow. There will be odd showers around, | :11:59. | :12:00. | |
but no prolonged rain, What you will notice is the breeze | :12:01. | :12:04. | |
picking up, particularly towards the east coast, | :12:05. | :12:08. | |
it will be coming in from the east. That will make it feel chilly | :12:09. | :12:11. | |
at times, especially But we are expecting skies to remain | :12:12. | :12:13. | |
pretty clear tonight. As a result, it is going | :12:14. | :12:17. | |
to get pretty chilly. Temperatures could well | :12:18. | :12:19. | |
get close to freezing And there could be a bit | :12:20. | :12:21. | |
of mist and fog around So, some frost on the grass in rural | :12:22. | :12:26. | |
areas tomorrow morning, but we are expecting Tuesday to be | :12:27. | :12:30. | |
another fine day. And any mist and fog | :12:31. | :12:32. | |
will go quite quickly, maybe lifting into low cloud, | :12:33. | :12:34. | |
but otherwise some generous amounts of sunshine to come once again | :12:35. | :12:37. | |
through the day. Now, looking at the bigger picture, | :12:38. | :12:39. | |
there will be some showers around Edinburgh, down through | :12:40. | :12:42. | |
the north-east of England, to East Anglia and even | :12:43. | :12:43. | |
towards the London area. That's where most of the cloud | :12:44. | :12:48. | |
will be, and the showers. So, further west across Britain, | :12:49. | :12:54. | |
Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland, it's a lovely | :12:55. | :12:56. | |
day with some sunshine. A bit more of a breeze blowing | :12:57. | :13:00. | |
compared to the last few days, And there will be | :13:01. | :13:03. | |
some areas of cloud. There is just a very small chance | :13:04. | :13:10. | |
of a shower popping up before Wednesday too should be largely dry, | :13:11. | :13:13. | |
maybe not just as bright or sunny, but still a little bit | :13:14. | :13:17. | |
of brightness here and there. Cool at times in the breeze, | :13:18. | :13:20. | |
but temperatures will be close to the average for this time | :13:21. | :13:22. | |
of year, and not too much changing Our next BBC Newsline is at 6:25am | :13:23. | :13:28. | |
in the morning during Breakfast | :13:29. | :13:30. |
