Fire crews are dealing with a fire at a business | :00:00. | :00:09. | |
premises on Main Street in Larne this evening. | :00:10. | :00:11. | |
It follows a series of arson attacks in the town over the Easter weekend. | :00:12. | :00:15. | |
In one early this morning a family, with two young children, | :00:16. | :00:18. | |
were at home when their house came under attack. | :00:19. | :00:21. | |
The house targeted this morning was at Mill Road | :00:22. | :00:26. | |
A petrol-soaked rag was recovered from the scene. | :00:27. | :00:31. | |
A second car was set alight in Bryan Street. | :00:32. | :00:34. | |
The police are investigating a link with other attacks on Saturday | :00:35. | :00:37. | |
and Sunday when five cars were extensively damaged. | :00:38. | :00:40. | |
There have been arson attacks on Friday, | :00:41. | :00:42. | |
I totally condemn these attacks and I appeal to anybody | :00:43. | :00:47. | |
who has any information, no matter how small that is, | :00:48. | :00:51. | |
to come forward to the PSNI with that information so that these | :00:52. | :00:53. | |
people can be apprehended and brought before the courts. | :00:54. | :00:59. | |
Last night was a typical example where a lady | :01:00. | :01:02. | |
was in the house with a young family that was petrol bombed. | :01:03. | :01:04. | |
This is totally and utterly unacceptable. | :01:05. | :01:08. | |
A DUP MP says Northern Ireland is heading towards direct rule. | :01:09. | :01:16. | |
Talks to form a Stormont Executive are due to resume after Easter. | :01:17. | :01:20. | |
While the UK Government says it will consider all options, | :01:21. | :01:24. | |
Sinn Fein insist it's either a deal or an election. | :01:25. | :01:28. | |
Sir Jeffrey Donaldson told our reporter Sara Neill that | :01:29. | :01:31. | |
Sinn Fein are changing the goalposts every day. | :01:32. | :01:35. | |
I think that with the situation if it continues like this over | :01:36. | :01:38. | |
the next couple of weeks we are looking at direct rule. | :01:39. | :01:42. | |
The DUP is ready to to form a government without preconditions. | :01:43. | :01:47. | |
We recognise there are a lot of issues we need to work through, | :01:48. | :01:50. | |
but surely the best way to do that is being in government | :01:51. | :01:54. | |
and having the reins of power and to be able to make the changes | :01:55. | :01:57. | |
necessary and to deliver for the people who elected us, | :01:58. | :02:01. | |
so we are ready to go into government but apparently | :02:02. | :02:04. | |
You are saying that Sinn Fein are not ready to go into government | :02:05. | :02:09. | |
and there are issues that need to be worked through, is the problem that | :02:10. | :02:12. | |
The DUP has approached negotiations willing to find | :02:13. | :02:16. | |
consensus and agreement, but every day Sinn Fein put | :02:17. | :02:20. | |
They want another election and the opportunity to become | :02:21. | :02:28. | |
the largest party in Northern Ireland. | :02:29. | :02:32. | |
They are not interesting in an agreement or forming | :02:33. | :02:34. | |
a government, they just want to be top dog and where does that leave | :02:35. | :02:38. | |
Without a government, without a voice in Brexit | :02:39. | :02:43. | |
or on the important issues that confront us at that time. | :02:44. | :02:49. | |
Two men from Latvia have been seriously assaulted in Coalisland | :02:50. | :02:53. | |
in what police are treating as a hate crime. | :02:54. | :02:57. | |
It's believed a group of men carried out the attack outside a bar | :02:58. | :02:59. | |
The victims, who are in their 20s, suffered cuts, bruises | :03:00. | :03:03. | |
People are not happy because it brings our town into disrepute and | :03:04. | :03:16. | |
it is not something we are used to wear something that I have every | :03:17. | :03:19. | |
memory of happening before where people were attacked and it was | :03:20. | :03:24. | |
believed to be because of their race. This is a town where people | :03:25. | :03:27. | |
have always been made to feel very welcome. | :03:28. | :03:28. | |
The police say a fire at a derelict property in Portrush last night may | :03:29. | :03:32. | |
Crime scene investigators will examine the site at Bath Terrace. | :03:33. | :03:35. | |
Fire crews were called out at about 9pm and worked | :03:36. | :03:38. | |
through the night to put out the blaze. | :03:39. | :03:41. | |
Thousands of people gathered in Londonderry this afternoon | :03:42. | :03:43. | |
for a parade organised by the dissident | :03:44. | :03:44. | |
The parade started in the Bogside and ended in the Creggan estate | :03:45. | :03:50. | |
where a wreath was laid at a republican mural. | :03:51. | :03:53. | |
The main oration was given by the former republican | :03:54. | :03:56. | |
prisoner Paul Duffy, brother of the prominent | :03:57. | :03:58. | |
He said the party wanted to bring an end to British | :03:59. | :04:04. | |
We'll have the weather forecast in few moments. | :04:05. | :04:10. | |
But first, for more than 200 years a team at Armagh Observatory have | :04:11. | :04:13. | |
taken handwritten weather recordings on temperature, wind, | :04:14. | :04:14. | |
But that could all be about to change. | :04:15. | :04:17. | |
Our weather presenter Barra Best has the details. | :04:18. | :04:20. | |
Since the late 1700s, someone every single day | :04:21. | :04:22. | |
and in all types of weather has been taking weather measurements | :04:23. | :04:25. | |
From checking the thermometer for the temperature to checking how | :04:26. | :04:31. | |
many minutes or hours of sunshine there has been and more. | :04:32. | :04:36. | |
It is my responsibility now and it has have been for 18 years. | :04:37. | :04:40. | |
These are just as accurate as digital thermometers | :04:41. | :04:44. | |
and there was no significant difference in them, really. | :04:45. | :04:46. | |
The old way is as good as the new way. | :04:47. | :04:51. | |
This is one of the few remaining and final sites that records weather | :04:52. | :04:54. | |
manually in Northern Ireland and it is thought to | :04:55. | :04:57. | |
Those handwritten records are still at the site | :04:58. | :05:03. | |
and one of our weather team was given a look. | :05:04. | :05:06. | |
This is the first sheet of measurements. | :05:07. | :05:08. | |
Inside temperature, outside temperature and the barometer. | :05:09. | :05:19. | |
This is the start of the measurements and it has been | :05:20. | :05:22. | |
going on ever since at Armagh Observatory. | :05:23. | :05:24. | |
Most stations are now automatic, capable of giving | :05:25. | :05:26. | |
And how does the person who has been doing it manually | :05:27. | :05:33. | |
It will be a nice Saturday morning when you don't have | :05:34. | :05:37. | |
to come up the hill, stand here and get wind | :05:38. | :05:40. | |
For now, the history books will continue to be written | :05:41. | :05:45. | |
Football, and there was a fourth successive loss | :05:46. | :05:54. | |
They lost 2-0 to Galway United in the EA Sports Cup second round. | :05:55. | :06:00. | |
Looking ahead to BBC Newsline tomorrow, | :06:01. | :06:01. | |
This man who was sent to Australia as a child finds | :06:02. | :06:05. | |
It was a shock and a surprise. We got the champagne out the day we got | :06:06. | :06:20. | |
the results of the DNA test and it was confirmed that Patrick was | :06:21. | :06:25. | |
related to us. For my dad it was just great to be able to meet | :06:26. | :06:29. | |
Patrick and bring him over and he took Patrick down to Fermanagh and | :06:30. | :06:31. | |
showed him where his mother grew up. And you can see that story on BBC | :06:32. | :06:33. | |
