The police say a sizeable bomb that was left at the gates | :00:00. | :00:09. | |
of Holy Cross Boys School in Ardoyne in north Belfast was an attempt | :00:10. | :00:12. | |
by violent dissident Republicans to kill police officers. | :00:13. | :00:16. | |
Up to 20 families had to be moved from their homes for most | :00:17. | :00:19. | |
of the night while the bomb was dealt with. | :00:20. | :00:22. | |
The Secretary of State James Brokenshire said the consequences | :00:23. | :00:25. | |
could have been devastating. Dan Stanton reports from Ardoyne. | :00:26. | :00:31. | |
The bomb was left outside the school gates on a busy pedestrian route | :00:32. | :00:37. | |
between the shops in Ardoyne and a social club at the bottom of the | :00:38. | :00:41. | |
hill. It was spotted by police just before midnight close to these | :00:42. | :00:46. | |
terraced homes. There is no doubt the device were there to try to kill | :00:47. | :00:49. | |
community police officers on the beat in the local area but also it | :00:50. | :00:54. | |
was left in such a reckless manner and such a reckless occasion that it | :00:55. | :00:58. | |
would undoubtedly have led to death of the member of the public had it | :00:59. | :01:02. | |
exploded. Police knocked on the doors on all of these homes and | :01:03. | :01:05. | |
asked people living in home to leave. They will offer the | :01:06. | :01:09. | |
alternative of going to a community centre or to stay with friends. A | :01:10. | :01:13. | |
mother and her daughter are on the 20 families forced to leave their | :01:14. | :01:19. | |
homes. You can see the fear in her eyes, affected quite badly by this. | :01:20. | :01:26. | |
She said her mum woke her up at 1am in the morning and said we have to | :01:27. | :01:29. | |
leave the house and for any young child, it is difficult for it to go | :01:30. | :01:34. | |
through it so you can tell people were affected by this incident. | :01:35. | :01:41. | |
Those who are involved in this need to get off people's backs and they | :01:42. | :01:46. | |
need to go away. It's as straightforward as that. After the | :01:47. | :01:49. | |
device was taken away, the police cordon was lifted and people were | :01:50. | :01:55. | |
allowed to return. Thank goodness everyone was out safe. You don't | :01:56. | :02:01. | |
want these things, so you don't. It's lucky nobody was hurt. Nobody | :02:02. | :02:11. | |
needs this. Why are people doing it? It doesn't achieve anything. | :02:12. | :02:15. | |
Forensic experts will analyse the bomb for clues. The Holycross boys | :02:16. | :02:20. | |
school is due to open after the Easter holidays. | :02:21. | :02:25. | |
A car has been driven into the front of a house in Larne. | :02:26. | :02:28. | |
There are few details about the incident which happened | :02:29. | :02:30. | |
at the property on the Killyglen road in the Craighyhill area | :02:31. | :02:32. | |
It's not yet known if anyone was injured. | :02:33. | :02:37. | |
Firefighters and police are still at the scene. | :02:38. | :02:39. | |
A rider is in a critical condition in hospital after he crashed | :02:40. | :02:43. | |
during yesterday evening's Tandragee 100 road races in County Armagh. | :02:44. | :02:47. | |
38-year-old Dario Cecconi from Italy suffered serious | :02:48. | :02:50. | |
injuries in the incident, which happened on the approach | :02:51. | :02:53. | |
to Bells Crossroads on the final lap of the Senior Support race. | :02:54. | :02:57. | |
It's understood another rider was involved in the accident. | :02:58. | :03:01. | |
The final two races of the meeting were abandoned. | :03:02. | :03:04. | |
The Tandragee 100 was the first road race of the new season. | :03:05. | :03:08. | |
The Ulster Unionist leader Robin Swann and the DUP leader | :03:09. | :03:11. | |
Arlene Foster are due to meet tomorrow to discuss the potential | :03:12. | :03:14. | |
of a unionist pact in some constituencies in June's | :03:15. | :03:17. | |
general election. Mr Swann has already declared his | :03:18. | :03:21. | |
party won't be standing in Foyle, or North and West Belfast. | :03:22. | :03:24. | |
It was one of the major talking points when the five main parties | :03:25. | :03:28. | |
took part in todays Sunday Politics as Helen Jones now reports. | :03:29. | :03:36. | |
Pacts are on the agenda with the five main parties limbering up. Last | :03:37. | :03:45. | |
general election, Belfast took the seat from the Alliance Party after | :03:46. | :03:48. | |
the Ulster Unionist Party decided not to field a candidate. He will be | :03:49. | :03:53. | |
hoping for a similar pact this time round? If it's a straight, fair and | :03:54. | :04:00. | |
Brexit fight, I'm quite relaxed. You fancy your chances quite well if | :04:01. | :04:05. | |
it's an Ulster Unionist Party candidate? I'm quite relaxed. Pacts | :04:06. | :04:10. | |
don't work, they are fundamentally anti-democratic. They restrict | :04:11. | :04:14. | |
choice rather than try to facilitate a different type of choice. The | :04:15. | :04:20. | |
leaders of the UUP and DUP will meet to discuss maximising the unionist | :04:21. | :04:23. | |
vote, a different tactic used to those in the Assembly collections. | :04:24. | :04:27. | |
Two months ago, Mike Nesbitt stood up and said vote might get column. | :04:28. | :04:36. | |
Is it being replaced by vote Kruse, get Arlene Foster? That's what | :04:37. | :04:42. | |
discussions will be about. If you can maximise the number of | :04:43. | :04:45. | |
representatives that go back and take the seat in Westminster, so | :04:46. | :04:50. | |
much the better. They believe the general election is an opportunity | :04:51. | :04:53. | |
to form a Coalition. If we are to protect the wishes of the people, we | :04:54. | :04:58. | |
need to stand up and it's a chance for progressives to stand together. | :04:59. | :05:04. | |
We have a duty to see, can we maximise that pro-Remain vote, those | :05:05. | :05:08. | |
people that want to mitigate the impact of Brexit. That's what we're | :05:09. | :05:12. | |
trying to do. That would have to be done clearly on a nonsectarian basis | :05:13. | :05:17. | |
and hopefully that could take forward the nonparty voices too. | :05:18. | :05:21. | |
Just under seven weeks to polling day, it's clear there is still a lot | :05:22. | :05:24. | |
to iron out. A firefighter from Omagh | :05:25. | :05:26. | |
who was hailed a hero after coming to the help of a runner during last | :05:27. | :05:29. | |
week's Boston Marathon has been Crew Commander Terry Canning, | :05:30. | :05:32. | |
saw that US runner Julianne Bowe was overcome with heat | :05:33. | :05:37. | |
and struggling to finish the race. Along with another competitor | :05:38. | :05:40. | |
from Chile he helped carry her up He stayed with me for the last, | :05:41. | :05:54. | |
maybe 200 metres and... Your job was a great help because you are a | :05:55. | :05:59. | |
fireman. Yes. The important thing was that you let her down so she | :06:00. | :06:04. | |
crossed the line. Absolutely, to anyone who has ever experienced a | :06:05. | :06:08. | |
marathon, the most important thing is the last couple of steps over the | :06:09. | :06:13. | |
marker plates, just say, I finished that marathon, I crossed the line | :06:14. | :06:15. | |
have done it. Now finally here's Angie Phillips | :06:16. | :06:16. | |
with the weather forecast. Hello there, we may be | :06:17. | :06:21. | |
well into the springtime but the weather has different ideas | :06:22. | :06:23. | |
about that this coming week. It is going to be feeling cold and | :06:24. | :06:26. | |

showers in places as well. Tonight, a few rain showers in the evening in | :06:43. | :06:47. | |
the first part of the night, not particularly chilly. Later in the | :06:48. | :06:49. | |
night, we get that weather front moving in, a more persistent band of | :06:50. | :06:54. | |
rain into the northern counties. It will sink south tomorrow and we will | :06:55. | :06:58. | |
get a lot of sunshine but not particularly warm. A cloudy start of | :06:59. | :07:02. | |
that rain band continues to sink south. Brighter skies follow behind. | :07:03. | :07:09. | |
That rain band extending into the Republic of Ireland, north of | :07:10. | :07:12. | |
England and parts of Wales and to that south of act, dry and bright | :07:13. | :07:19. | |
and temperatures in the mid teens. Already some wintry showers of sleet | :07:20. | :07:21. | |
and snow coming into northern parts of Scotland. Northern Ireland in the | :07:22. | :07:27. | |
afternoon, some rain showers, plenty of sunshine and gusty winds that | :07:28. | :07:32. | |
feeling cold. It is through tomorrow night and into Tuesday that we get | :07:33. | :07:36. | |
sunshine and wintry showers, a mixture of rain, hail, sleet and | :07:37. | :07:39. | |
hill snow. Our next BBC Newsline bulletin | :07:40. | :07:41. | |
is at a 10.20pm this evening. From all of us here, enjoy the rest | :07:42. | :07:45. | |
