Peter Robinson: we must halt Sinn Fein’s all-Ireland project
Both of Northern Ireland’s biggest political parties have claimed that Sinn Fein’s success |in the Irish general election will boost their performance in Stormont elections later this year. Yesterday, DUP leader Peter Robinson mentioned it as he launched his candidates for the Assembly elections. Mr Robinson conceded that Sinn Fein's Dail gains provided it with “limited opportunities for growth in Northern Ireland”, but added “there will also be a bounce for us because people will want to stop Gerry Adams in his tracks with his all-Ireland project”. ...

Grassroots point the way to shared future in peaceful Northern Ireland Pressure on Northern Ireland's political leaders from the grassroots to focus on bread and butter issuesAs my feet crunched on broken glass strewn across a North Belfast side street earlier this month, little appeared to have changed since I left Northern Ireland in 1997.The glass served as a reminder that North Belfast, which bore the brunt of the violence during the Troubles, witnessed renewed sectarian clashes at the height of the loyalist marching season last month. It all had a familiar feel from my time in Northern Ireland as the Times correspondent in the final days of the Troubles.The gloomy outlook did not last long. Shortly after arriving in the Duncairn Gardens area of the city, two community workers from either side of Northern Ireland's sectarian divide turned up. Jackie McDonald, a leader of the loyalist paramilitary group the Ulster Defence Association, and Liam Maskey, a republican community worker, told me how closely they work together to help young people.I was speak |
Northern Ireland leaders appeal for calm before 12 July parades Peter Robinson says 'rioting is not the answer' on eve of loyalist march past flashpoint republican area in north BelfastWith less than 24 hours to go before the most controversial loyalist parade of Ulster's marching season, the first and deputy first ministers of Northern Ireland have appealed for calm across the community.Peter Robinson, the first minister, said on Monday that while feelings were running high on the eve The Twelfth – when Protestants celebrate the battle of the Boyne, with marches – "violence and rioting" was not the answer.He called on "everyone to take a step back and think of the consequences before doing something which you will later regret".A major security operation will be in force on Tuesday in north Belfast where Orangemen are scheduled to march past the republican Ardoyne area and nationalists are planning a demonstration.Residents have accused ministers in the power-sharing cabinet at Stormont of ignoring their community's demands that a feeder par |

She remains in police custody."Northern Ireland's first minister, Peter Robinson, and his deputy, Martin McGuinness, condemned the riots and a separate bomb attack aimed at police in west Belfast.Robinson said: "At this time, when ma |
Peter Robinson threatens to resign over Northern Ireland prison row First minister says he will force election if prison reforms include removal of royal emblems and titles from region's jailsPower sharing in Northern Ireland is facing a new crisis after the first minister, Peter Robinson, warned that he would resign rather than allow the crown and other British symbols to be removed from the local prison service's emblems.Robinson said on Tuesday that he would rather step down and "take this matter to the electorate" than accept reform proposals that include possibly ditching the crown badge.Earlier the justice minister and leader of the non-sectarian centrist Alliance party, David Ford, told the Stormont assembly that there would have to be a change in the culture of the prison service, including how it looks. Ford has embarked on a major reform programme of prisons and the way they operate in Northern Ireland.Responding to proposals to remove the crown badge and symbol, Robinson said: "It will be blocked, it is simply not on the agenda and, indeed, |
