Joint Oireachtas Committee on the Implementation of the Good Friday Agreement

United Kingdom Northern Ireland Troubles (Legacy and Reconciliation) Act 2023: Discussion

Professor Bill Rolston:

I will come back in for less than one minute. My other point is that if the Labour Party does not go ahead with its promise, then the case to Europe becomes even more important. I do not know whether this goes against the remarks on respect or whatever but, on a personal level, I am not entirely convinced that Keir Starmer will be true to his word, if and when he gets elected. I am also not sure what space Hilary Benn might have, given what else is happening in British politics, to deliver on this.
