in northern ireland. let's hear some of that news c0 nfe re nce ireland. let's hear some of that news conference now, firstly from the irish foreign minister. what we saw this time last week of party leaders coming together and standing united in putting out a joint statement, it really gives me a clear indication that the party leaders do want to do this. now, we we re always leaders do want to do this. now, we were always clear when we talked about this that we would want to start talks after the local elections. what we are here today to say is that this will happen on the 7th of may. what we want and i think what every decent thinking person wants now in northern ireland is to see us wants now in northern ireland is to see us take that spark of determination that i think we've all felt in the last few days and to see if we can build eight momentum from that that can do something real and positive. we need new thinking about how to restart politics in northern ireland. so will the parties be able to re

maybe something could happen in northern ireland. it will be interesting to see in the next two or three weeks if there are any moves to extend that good friday agreement goodwill, which there has been. when the father, interviewed him earlier, he said that he felt they had been a feeling that the community wanted politicians to try and get together instalment to try and get together instalment to try and break the impasse and get power—sharing backup and running. when lyra was murdered on friday, invisibly devastating moment and i think think the community was rocked, actually, really, really rocked, actually, really, really rocked to its foundations and i would not be at all surprised if something did shift as a result. i think she is such a, she was clearly such an incredibly talented, passionate woman and she grew up gay in northern ireland, it is no easy feat, particularly when you have people like arlene foster breathing down your neck and wanting to deprive you of any equality or right or abortion, if you are a woman, or kin

the murder of 29—year—old northern ireland journalist lyra mckee. she was shot while observing rioting in londonderry‘s creggan estate. the organisation known as the new ira has said it was behind the shooting and has offered what it's called "full and sincere apologies." the northern ireland secretary set out what had happened that night — she said police had been carrying out searches, in londonderry looking for firearms and explosives. while the searches were being carried out, the crowd gathered. three vehicles were hijacked and set a light and the police came under attack with up to 50 petrol bombs thrown at police lines. during the disorder, a gunman fired a number of shots in the direction of police, wounding lyra mckee. to those responsible for this act of terrorism, we say we have heard your excuses and your hollow apologies, no—one buys it. this was no accident. there is nothing that can justify this murderous act, and you are being called out for what you really are. i'm struck with the contradiction between lyra mckee and the value

then came a reproachful plea, directed at northern ireland's divided politicians. why in god's name does it take the death of a 29—year—old woman with her whole life in front of her... applause. an uncomfortable reminder that more than two years since the breakdown of power—sharing in northern ireland, these leaders who have come together in solidarity today have failed to show the same unity in government. i dare to hope that lyra's murder on holy thursday evening can be the doorway to a new beginning, and i detect a deep desire for this. exactly 21 years after the good friday agreement, lyra mckee, gunned down by the new ira, has prompted a backlash against modern day dissident republicans. the shock of lyra mckee‘s death has been felt widely but there is also a sense of hope here that it can bring a new turning point which helps northern ireland move forward. it should have been a thing of the past, you know. it is ridiculous, you know. it's a small minority who hold the whole country to ransom, or who are trying to do it, you know? a young girl has lost

sadly northern ireland has known far too many of these deaths in the past. we did hope these tests were in the past and this happening now in 2019 is utterly shattering for so many people, particularly i think a younger generation who hasn't known this, experienced this. lyra was a well—known figure in the journalist and activist communities because she stood up for causes she believed in. she once wrote about the trauma of the ceasefire babies. what drove her to write the piece and look at her country's history? the sort of journalism she did was very reflective and considerate of the society she had grown up in and was opening to build a future in with her partner, sarah. looking back at the horrible conflict from which we have emerged, too many people still do not have justice, have emerged, too many people still do not havejustice, too many have emerged, too many people still do not have justice, too many deaths and injuries. ithink do not have justice, too many deaths and injuries. i think she was interested in exploring those stories and hearing the

yesterday saw a huge outpouring of grief and shock and sorrow, notjust in northern ireland but around the world. even today, former president bill clinton has been tweeting his shock and sadness at the moor that happened on thursday night. what about the range of political action and the sense there has been one message coming from all the communities in northern ireland to express their horror at this attack? the leaders of six of the parties attended a vigil in londonderry where lyra mckee was shot, leaders of the dup, the uup, the sdlp, sinn fein, the alliance party and the green party standing as one. they have released a joint statement earlier in the day saying the killing was a pointless and futile act to try to wreck the progress made in the past 20 years. yesterday was good friday, the good friday agreement was signed on good friday in 1998. there has been a universal condemnation from politicians here of the killing and many have attended other vigils. there will be more vigils across northern ireland today, perhaps indicative of the horror and revulsion that this young woma

the colla pse northern ireland issue and the collapse of the northern ireland assembly and the collapse of direct rule from westminster. this was within our lifetimes a live war in the united kingdom that has got remarkably little press with regards to what is happening. if this is something of a tragic victory, that lyra mckee's death has galvanised some attention, and now we see britain and ireland are having more negotiations about setting up some kind of sort of coalition in northern ireland. but at the same time we read deeper into the story and while the new ira says it is an accident, there are no signs that they will stop. they are clear they will not defeat the british military, but they will continue to carry out acts because of republicanism. what has happened is the representatives from the new ira's army council have given an interview to the sunday times. that is right, while they recognise there is right, while they recognise there is very little prospect of them militarily defeating the brits in northern ireland, nonetheless they are going to continue the fight. i am sur

police in northern ireland believe this is the man who killed the journalist lyra mckee. the 29—year—old was shot dead while reporting on riots in londonderry last week. a group calling itself the new ira has admitted it was responsible. today, detectives released new pictures of the suspected gunman and they're calling on the local community to help identify him. our ireland correspondent emma vardy reports. about a minute before the shots were fired that killed lyra mckee, three men were seen on cctv, walking towards the rioting. in front, police say, a man carrying a crate of petrol bombs. with him, a man wearing a camouflage face mask and what police believe is the gunman. the man in the face mask is then seen lighting petrol bombs, and some time after the shooting, what police believe is the gunman seen again during the rioting here. officers believe they are all in their late teens. police say they have had overwhelming support from people in derry during the investigation, but today reiterated a plea for people to overcome fears about coming forward, saying wit

in scotland and northern ireland, a bit of brightness or sunshine first thing. showers across england and wales from the word go push northwards. in terms of being cloudy, the showers get heavy with hail and thunder mixed in. some of those downpours will be quite lengthy as well as they drive their way northwards. in the south, perhaps turning a bit lighter today, a bit more sunshine, temperatures down on recent days, 13—16 degrees and quite a breezy day coming up, really. going through thursday evening and overnight, further wet weather for scotland, showers working in across parts of western england, and wales, perhaps some lengthier spells of rain through northern ireland through thursday night and into the early part of friday morning. friday, on the face of it, although it's quite unsettled again, there'll be some bigger gaps between the showers and perhaps some more in the way of sunshine for particularly eastern areas of scotland for a time, but it's not completely dry, you will see some further showers moving in through the afternoon. some of these are

easing into northern ireland with showers. we keep that wet weather out of the west, sheltered eastern area seeing the best of some sunshine along with northern scotland, with a little bit of shelter and son you should see temperatures into the high teens potentially. caught underneath the cloud and the rain, with a bit more ofa cloud and the rain, with a bit more of a breeze, it is a disappointing feel. now, deep area of low pressure and started moving, you can see it spiralling in. this is storm hannah andi spiralling in. this is storm hannah and i will continue to bring damaging gusts of wind through the early hours of saturday morning. also, heavy rain as it moves through north wales, the midlands and the north wales, the midlands and the north of england. as the low pressure m oves north of england. as the low pressure moves along the southern flank, down across wales into south—west england, we will see strong winds first thing on saturday. that is worth bearing in mind. at this time of year with three starting to come

this was the sort of northern ireland that she champions. of course, it is the sort of northern ireland that people hope will be part of her legacy. music: how great thou art. when jesus saw the crowds whenjesus saw the crowds he went up the mountain and after he sat down his disciples came to him. then he began to speak and talk to them, saying, placid of the poor in spirit for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted. blasted are they will be comforted. blasted are the meek fore they will inherit the earth. placid or those whose hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be filled. placid are the merciful, for they will receive mercy. placid are the pure in heart for they will see god. blasted are the peacemakers for they will be called children of god. blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness sake, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. here ends the reading. music: the lord is my sheperd. # surely goodness and mercy shall follow me. # all the days of my life. # and i will dwell in the house of the lord forever. # fo

a cross into northern ireland, so the weather becoming wet here this evening. then another pulse of rain moving up across south—west england and wales. given all the cloud and patchy outbreaks of rain in the west it's not desperately cold, 5—7dc, with clearer skies further east, that's where the coolest air will be. looking at the weather picture tomorrow our area of low pressure has moved further westwards and we are starting to get winds from the continent and that will boost temperatures. it will begin to turn less cold. that said, we still have cloud and rain around affecting northern ireland, wales and south—west england at times. the brightest weather the further north and east, probably decent sunshine in scotland. temperatures up to 11! degrees in edinburgh and london, so feeling quite a bit better than today and we've lost the chilly winds as well. on into the weekend we've got quite a mixed picture of whether, often quite cloudy, there will be some bright spells particularly across western parts of the country, but also some rain around at times
