Good evening and welcome to the programme. | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
Protests against Brexit have been taking place along the border. | :00:00. | :00:11. | |
Demonstrators say that Northern Ireland's referendum result | :00:12. | :00:13. | |
- when a majority voted to remain in the EU - | :00:14. | :00:15. | |
They are also opposed to any strengthening of border controls. | :00:16. | :00:22. | |
Our South-West reporter Julian Fowler was at one | :00:23. | :00:24. | |
of the protests on the road between Fermanagh and Cavan. | :00:25. | :00:28. | |
This is the border between Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland. | :00:29. | :00:33. | |
But, after Brexit, this will be part of a 300-mile long land border | :00:34. | :00:37. | |
Since the referendum result - when a 56% majority | :00:38. | :00:43. | |
in Northern Ireland voted to remain in the EU - the question | :00:44. | :00:47. | |
of what will happen to the border has been the subject of much debate. | :00:48. | :00:51. | |
Thousands of people travel unhindered from one side | :00:52. | :00:54. | |
to the other each day, and goods flow freely | :00:55. | :00:56. | |
The group border communities against Richard -- Brexit, which organised | :00:57. | :01:11. | |
the protest, say their voices must be heard when decisions are taken. | :01:12. | :01:16. | |
Theresa May said this weekend that she wants a hard Brexit. That is not | :01:17. | :01:21. | |
very reassuring. Dublin does not have a greater say in the matter. | :01:22. | :01:26. | |
Brussels will determine what kind of border we have. I have friends, | :01:27. | :01:31. | |
relations in a three-mile radius either side of the border, most of | :01:32. | :01:35. | |
my livelihood, my husband's babyhood, in relation to how it will | :01:36. | :01:39. | |
pan out. The only thing I know is we had to stand our ground here. We had | :01:40. | :01:44. | |
30 years of the troubles macro here, we put up with an awful lot. We want | :01:45. | :01:47. | |
to keep the peace in our area. The Prime Minister Theresa May has | :01:48. | :01:51. | |
said nobody wants to return to the borders of the past, | :01:52. | :01:53. | |
but she insisted that no UK region Politicians in London, | :01:54. | :01:56. | |
Belfast and Dublin have all expressed their desire | :01:57. | :01:59. | |
to maintain an open border. How that works in practice will form | :02:00. | :02:01. | |
a key part of the Brexit negotiations on the | :02:02. | :02:08. | |
freedom of movement. Two men are in a stable | :02:09. | :02:12. | |
condition in hospital after an assault involving a number | :02:13. | :02:14. | |
of men in Lisnaskea. It happened in the earlier hours | :02:15. | :02:16. | |
of this morning in Trasna Way. One other man was discharged | :02:17. | :02:19. | |
from hospital after Football, and Northern Ireland face | :02:20. | :02:22. | |
San Marino in their second World Cup The game is the team's first | :02:23. | :02:30. | |
at the newly completed Northern Ireland have one point so | :02:31. | :02:44. | |
far in the group after the third draw with the Czech Republic. | :02:45. | :02:45. | |
This will be Northern Ireland's first competitive home fixture for | :02:46. | :02:55. | |
exactly one year. San Marino may be the minnows of Group C, but patients | :02:56. | :02:59. | |
could well be the keeper Michael O'Neill's side. It is key, but I | :03:00. | :03:05. | |
want the team to play with high energy and a high tempo and the | :03:06. | :03:08. | |
crowd to really be behind the team. To do that you have to obviously get | :03:09. | :03:12. | |
the crowd on the edge of their seat. We have to play similar to how we | :03:13. | :03:16. | |
played a couple of years ago against the Aero Islands where we had loads | :03:17. | :03:22. | |
of goal-scoring opportunities. We won the Game 2- milk and that is | :03:23. | :03:27. | |
what we will aim to do here. We want to play on the front foot and make | :03:28. | :03:32. | |
life as difficult as possible for San Marino and they will have the | :03:33. | :03:36. | |
same intention. The last time the teams met in Belfast eight years | :03:37. | :03:41. | |
ago, Northern Ireland were 4-0 winners. I think these games are | :03:42. | :03:49. | |
never easy. They will be difficult to break down. We would love to get | :03:50. | :03:53. | |
an early goal but it doesn't always happen like that. We will have to | :03:54. | :03:57. | |
play with good intensity of the ball quickly to ensure quality. The match | :03:58. | :04:04. | |
will be the first played in the newly completed National Stadium at | :04:05. | :04:08. | |
Windsor Park. A sell-out crowd should guarantee a good atmosphere | :04:09. | :04:10. | |
for the inaugural home game of the World Cup campaign. | :04:11. | :04:12. | |
And you can listen to the game on BBC Radio Ulster | :04:13. | :04:14. | |
BBC Radio Ulster won gold in the Station Of The Year category | :04:15. | :04:21. | |
at the PPI Radio Awards in Kilkenny last night. | :04:22. | :04:23. | |
Evening Extra's Seamus McKee was also awarded gold in the News | :04:24. | :04:26. | |
In total BBC Radio Ulster and BBC radio Foyle received 12 awards. | :04:27. | :04:41. | |
Now with the weather forecast for the rest of the weekend, | :04:42. | :04:44. | |
18 Celsius in this sunshine in County Tyrone. 11 sorted and cloud | :04:45. | :04:57. | |
in the Antrim glands. It will stay cloudy in Belfast tonight but it | :04:58. | :05:00. | |
should stay dry pudding Northern Ireland match. Any showers few and | :05:01. | :05:04. | |
far between. Most places will have a dry night. It could get quite chilly | :05:05. | :05:10. | |
and misty. A dry start virtually everywhere on Sunday and largely dry | :05:11. | :05:14. | |
day. In most places a brighter day to come sunshine developing as the | :05:15. | :05:20. | |
morning goes on. Once again very little wind around, so excellent | :05:21. | :05:22. | |
running conditions but those who are taking part in the Gaeltacht Quarter | :05:23. | :05:30. | |
10k tomorrow. Across the UK and Ireland, not too many showers | :05:31. | :05:33. | |
around. Just a handful across eastern counties of England. One or | :05:34. | :05:37. | |
two could be quite sharp come the afternoon. Maybe the odd shower in | :05:38. | :05:41. | |
the Republic of Ireland but a lot less is dry. The best of the | :05:42. | :05:45. | |
sunshine tends to be farther west. That is where the highest | :05:46. | :05:49. | |
temperatures will be tomorrow. 15, 16 or 17 Celsius in parts of Tyrone. | :05:50. | :05:53. | |
The odd shower possible especially over County Down. The area of high | :05:54. | :05:58. | |
pressure that extends from Scandinavia will continue to | :05:59. | :06:00. | |
influence our weather next week or at least from most of the working | :06:01. | :06:04. | |
week keeping the areas of low pressure away from us. The you will | :06:05. | :06:08. | |
notice the lines develop across us meaning the wind will pick up | :06:09. | :06:11. | |
through the week. Some sunshine at times which will make all the | :06:12. | :06:15. | |
difference. Temperatures generally around the average, but in the | :06:16. | :06:18. | |
breeze it will start to feel good. That is all the news and weather. We | :06:19. | :06:26. | |
are back with you tomorrow at 6:05pm. You can keep up to date on | :06:27. | :06:33. | |
